For those of you who havent downloaded your copy of Kenichi Yamamoto's Rotary books.
Hey guys,
I posted some links to free downloads of Kenichi Yamamoto's Rotary books a few weeks ago. The thread has since being added to the 3rd generation "Tech Manual Directory". Not sure how frequently that area is explored, but at least the thread is immortalized. (https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-gen-archives-73/tech-manual-directory-614824/)
These books go into great mathmatical depth of the rotary engine, they even including the basic formulas by which the rotary engine works. Last time i checked these books are worth over $300 each.
So to anyone who hasnt gotten a copy, here it is again.

I actually have this book. I bought it new very early on in my RX-7 ownership, and it's in immaculate condition. It's a difficult read...you have to be a very good engineer to understand most of it.

^^ That sounds awesome Rich. I was hoping that's what I'd find when I crack open this book tonight. 
I'm a mechanical engineer, albeit a young one. I've been looking for some SERIOUS technical data than I can read through to get a better understanding of the rotary engine development process, and calculations required to arrive at the finished design. There are just some days where I get tired of the internet banter, and I want to get some quality information from someone who really knows there stuff. It looks like Yamamoto is going to provide me with that...
