thread on pros and cons of rotary vs piston

Its not just a rotary VS pistons. Most swaps also are using motors with 10 years of new tech in them, both electronically and mechanically. Apples to oranges. That said I love being able to drive my car hard, far from home, so I second the "good luck with that"
