Has anyone tried this or looked into it? If you have can you point me towards any information you have?

 

I am not 100% sure if it has been done but I know the Engine will defiantly fit you just have to get the motor mounts custom made. As for the Transmission and other parts go I am not sure about that. Myself I am currently trying to get my project Miata off the ground and so far I haven't received much help. I have the engine but I have no idea how to get it in the car and moving. I can mount it but as far as the other stuff goes idk yet.

 

are you talking about the prototype rotary corvette or actually putting a rotary in a newer corvette?

 

I am talking about putting a Rotary in a new/old corvette. If a car has the space for the engine it will work it is just getting all the other stuff to match up.

 

I just read about that Rotary corvette. I never knew such a thing existed.

 

I think a 3 or 4 rotor corvette would be intense..

 

Yeah GM put a whole lot of money towards a 4 rotor 'Vette, but enthusiast outcry and internal politics kinda killed it.

They spent somewhere around 50 million dollars in research trying to keep the rotary quiet...and then sold it for 50k to mazda, thinking it would flounder.

I'm actually talking about taking an early 90's corvette and putting probably a three rotor in it as Ill need the torque as soon as I get done with my rx7 Ill work on this project.

 

my dad talked about a rotary corvette but i didn't pay much attention lol.

 

Well if your gona do it make it a 3 rotor and bridgport it. then at the track teach the V8s a leason

 

Sounds good but what size turbo or turbos to use...
