Tennis, anyone
I love it !! 12a,,,, I have a friend who a few years back
used to be a rotor head,and he was telling me that a
12a is the **** vs a 13b, and about the size,shape,and position
of the ports too..12a bridgeport w/ EFI is very fast,
he says.Is there a secret templete for such porting ??
Did you know you ups guy had such a monster in his
pocket DF ?? Seeing those pics really gets the gears
turning upstairs,,,you know ??? What else ???
lightened rotors ,? cross drilled E shaft,for better oiling ?
Are the rear tires ,M&H racemasters(mini)with pizza cutters up front ? When the car launches what happens?
hooks up,,? pulls the wheel(s) ,?? goes up in smoke,??
I've got tons to ask still,,,later,, all that and its quite too
awesome...he did it RIGHT, and droped the blow through.

... If the hadn't screwed the damn thing to the car at either end I think i;d of taken it off by now ... still it drops the drag a little so as long as it servers a function it can stay ( its good for putting stuff on while you open the rear hatch too 
)

Stock 12A Rotors. The Car Hooks up awesome, Less than 1/4 turn wheelspin. BTW, the guy can drive very well. He even drove his friends 10 second 1981 Toyota Corlolla (4 cylinder Turbo, daily driver) for him as well.
They did do a VERY clean install. I am going to hook up with him about the Fuel Delivery, which is my only part that I am still not 100% sure of.

i seen that car run b4 at lakeland 1/8...i think he was running 6.4-6.5 at the time...Kilo racing once had a '71 Datsun with a bridgeported 12a engine with nos and i think he made it to 5.9 in the 8th...i seen him beat a lot of 13b's with the same set-up...that shows that you can do a lot with a 12a

He wasn't very friendly, and never lifted his hood.
I guess he was a "player-hater"

I see too many 9/10/11 second street cars to consider 12's to be very quick

Like the fact that I DO know something about GM fuel-injection.... now, to get my goddam truck running.... no fuel
injector's good, ECM's good, TPS is good, MAP is good, Idle air sensor or whatever it's called is good... but the INJECTOR won't spray unless I ground it out 
Oh well... this IS a rotary forum, so I won't ask for help here
thanks all-knowing god of rotaries #1
