6 rotor engine!

I know that there is a 6 rotor engine that exists but i cant find who makes them or where to buy one. The only info I have is that they are produced in europe and the attached picture. the site i got the picture from didnt have any information site and didnt have an email address to contact. anyone know anything about this engine?

I tried searching, because that pic is sweet.... But to no avail. Unfortunately the forum doens't allow searches of words under 3 letters, so you can't search "6 rotor" and any search for "six rotor" returns all the posts that refer to six port rotory engines, or any other combination of six and rotor. I searched this section, figuring it probably wouldn't be here, then searched the Performance section... nothing..

I'd love to slap one in a '57 cadillac.... and then go to the drag strip.... everyone'd be like "Look at that boat!!"

And then you run your 11 second 1/4 mile in a full-interior, pink cadillac weighing in at over 4500lbs

900-bhp 6-rotor Cadillac
