6 Rotory motor?

Ok So a 26B is 4 rotors & housings with a fabed e-shaft etc. So do they do the same thing for a 6 rotor? What about the crank timing? Wiring the coils is not that hard thanks to this Club. I am Really going to call 3 Rotor.com Monday. So I just need the same year 13b’s X three. Hmmm. Inittab Can you help? We Have CNC Buddy.

Oh Wow. I am really freaking out about this. I love my car and My Daddy said he is going to find out about how to get one, and you know I will tell all. My dad is still laughing at me knowing how much I wanted a 20B motor and he kept saying he knew where a bigger one’s where at, But I thought he was talking V8? Ok talk to you all soon.

Hey I know where the Lockheed/ Martin plant and hanger are in Southern Cal, I use to live down there and would drive by to work. Hmmm. I use to work for Heli-Teck in Eugene Or, Fabricating helicopter parts and frames. So maybe I could get them at cost from them?

You know That’s ok. I would like the motor to sit back a bit and the shifter more to me cause I am very tall and would love to move the seat back. Me and Dad have talked about that before. So cutting the fire wall and he said something about that? And moving that back for me and the Seat and the shifter, But he did say it would take some time to put it in but he thinks not that long. He works as the LM Flight tech. So fabricating and deigning is like his main Job.

Yeah I was thinking that same thing and cutting the fire wall and I am 6’3”and would love the move a racing seat back and weld it in so that my legs are not ramming in the dash. If things go right in the next year I will post everything on how I got it in my car. So how tall are you? How long has your Dad worked for Lockheed/Marin? Can I send you a email? Hahaha!

Pm you back. Oh yeah 900 HP that would do it. Way cool! Oh yeah. Tell your Dad that I just want to know how much the motor is with everything but the intake. For Aviation Fuel injection is the only way to go for over 12000 feet . I can make my own Aluminum Intake for about $75. Have a Tig welder at home and Aluminum Tubing is real easy to get where I live. Thank you for the info, I will tell my friends where I live about what you find out next week.
