Revolution Rotary engines ...anyone know about them ?

i was searching on ebay and came across one of their ads for a dyno proven 180 hp to the crank rebuilds . i went to their website and their pricing seems good . i read the write up on their project car and it seems like they know what they are doing . i also noticed that they eliminated the stock afm . does anyone know how they did that ? anyone have any experience with revolution rotary ? if i hear good things about them , when the times comes i will be ordering a reman street ported engine from them . tia

Well if there in the buisness of selling only rotary engines you'd think they'd offer good quality. They seem to have some experience people working there according to the site.

They are always selling engines on ebay, i'd sent them a email a while back. They responded in about an hour (which is better than 80% of the places I mail...). Prices seem okay, and they do have warranties.

I just went to their website and clicked on the exploded view of the components of a rotary. Don't they have it pictured wrong? Look at the pic carefully, the flywheel should be on the other end of the motor, or the rotor housings need to be flipped around.

I 'ave seen them on ebay as well and have checked out their site, My only concern would be that they don't mention that they replace the Apex seals when they do their re-builds.

Now they may replace them, many places do, but I have found generally only the prople that replace them as SOP mention that in their websites.
