All they are, is the rotary airplane engines put on a car chasis with some custom crap to make it work, Ive seen quite a few people do it before. Search, and you shall find.

i already know that i'm just going to make diagram and possibly a kit if i get enough interest in it i'm mounting it on a tc3 platform it's cheep which is good for all us "rich" rotor heads a running TC3 kit is 300 then you just need the rotary engine and the mounts i'm desiging and your ready to run your own Rotary monster. i'm also going to talk to some people about modding it out
