Has anyone ever played around with the idea of making a 12a 6port engine using the plates off a 13b and the rotors, rotor housings, and shaft out of a 12a?

 

Yep. I could build one as soon as a buddy take apart is GSL-SE engine. One of the rotor housings is bad, but I think the side plates are ok. It just takes a cusom manifold and 12A rotor housings and rotating assembly. If you're keeping the FI, then it'll need ECU adjustments. I think some HC Luces in the '80s had 6 port 12As.

 

I was just gonna say that Ive heard of factory 12A 6 ports, but then I read the end of your post paul .

yes there is a factory 12a 6 port carburated engine, it even has the 6 port sleeves in it! very slow , i was getting them very cheap for a while, but they have dried up now.

 

680, were they as slow as the 4 port 12A cars? Heh, I say slow when most 1st gens are faster than my REPU lol.

 

According to this site http://members.rogers.com/sofronov/C...otary/12A.html they were built for fuel ecconomy and not performance , I think they put out as much power as the US market 13b cars though
