There is a 12AT on e-bay for $900 will this swap into my 84 GSL

Is there an ecu with this engine or is it all mechanical?

From what I understand, it does require an ECU. Here is a link that has some good info:http://cp_www.tripod.com/rotary/pg18.htm

Yes, it will require a ECU. I went with a MicroTech LT10S fuel/ignition ECU. I swapped out the mechanical distributer for the second gen electronic.

The MicroTech is ok, if I had to do it over I might spend more time evauating other brands. Basically I got it for price and because my mechanic said that he would only work with MicroTech.
