New rotary

This was pattented in 1996, it is called Quasiturbine engine. It is somewhat a square instead of the wankel triangle. It's different because it has 4 rotors, or so they call them, in each housing. With that being said, it is sposed to have continual combustion due to the 4 sides, intake, compression, combustion, exhaust. I was wondering if any of you have heard of this? They gave a demo of it running on a go kart in 2004. It is sposed to take over the wankel, and eventually the piston, but thats what they said about the wankel too. Capable of running off of about 7 different types of fuels, including hydrogen. Emisions free, and almost oil free. So they say.

I read up on it and it's awesome. It uses roller as to apex seal on rotary and only 1 housing.

Funny, when he had money to spend and wanted advice on where to go you were right there recomending Ron. Maybe you shouldn't be an *** to people you don't know.

Sorry I didn't see that post, and wasn't really thinking about anything else after reading about the quad. Still don't have the fd back yet. Last time I went over there the motor was getting cleaned. I will post it up when I get it back for all of you that would like to know. Getting it back then sending it down the road, for any of you that wants a freshly rebuilt motor.
