the 12a and 13b do not have interchangeability of the manifolds. The normal way for people to carb a 13b is to purchese the manifolds and carbs, separately if you know what your looking for, or as a package.

A standard issue carburetor from say, Summit, is not going to work on your rotary engine.

To that extent, do you not have any of the EFI components?

You could build an adapter to mate up the 12A manifold to the 13B engine but it would be far from optimal. That setup would make less power that stock anyways.

Why do you want to do this? Your S5 setup has the ability to hit 200 rwhp already. Installing a carb isn't going to magically make you faster. I'd just make what you have work.

ok here is my situation i got ahead of myself and i lost my fuel rails and well i was thinking all i would have to do is drop the omp use s5 lower fuel rail with s4 upper and run my s4 intake (the intake is ported and polished) and well im just having difficulty with how im doing this at the same time i need new flywheel bolts.


remember all help is appriciated



p.s. the driveshaft is a custom built aluminum driveshaft with a lsd out of a gxl im tring to crank out as much power na as possible and i really dont want to part this beauty out and at the same time i think its a discrace to put anything other than a rotary in a 7
