Search before you ask. People here will thrash you if you don't. :Kill1:


And you'd need at least 25k for a 4 rotor conversion.....

I could see it being done for sub 20k by a very skilled fabricator.

Grant from Granny's Speed Shop made a 4 rotor from scratch for his outlaw dirt track racer.

550 hp N/A is pretty impressive.

Jeff Bruce is the guy that machines the stuff for the Kiwi-RE kits. I have a feeling that if you were to go to him, you could get all that stuff in the kit for less than $5000. The NZ/US exchange rate helps a bit.

But beyond that, there IS a lot of extra parts you'd need to assemble it all and so that's where the big cost will come in. It should be fairly do-able for less than 20k though.

AMV, US importer for Kiwi's 4 rotor parts names: CLR's Carlos Lopez as their exclusive engine builder.
Pics of CLR's work is featured on AMV's website, under rotary engine building.
Rumor from some creditable suppliers has it they are building a 4 rotor Turbo FD for the street.

Not a chance. Unless you are going to do the majority of the work yourself.
