Dual 13B set up--hypothetical
I was wondering if anyone has ever set up two 13b's in an engine bay before (side by side--not end to end). Connecting the two output shafts via a chain then to a clutch. I know it will be expensive, but I'm more curious if anyone has ever attempted it, and what their mind set was? IE: double the torque. etc. I'm going to guess not since it doesn't maximize any of the key things about a rotory and what it can do, but in fact just doubles the parts and throws off the weight distro if placed in an RX7. about the only benifite i could see would be a doubling in torque (as well as other less likeable things:headaches). But food for thought.

Do some research on GM's four rotor concepts that they messed around with putting in a corvette on of their concepts worked that way and another one had one engine in front and one behind connected via some kind of differential to equal out the tourqe...
