Well its about time!
I been talkin bout Hi quality Aluminum rotors for close to 25yrs. Now who is going to step up to 13B E-shafts made from a GOOD steel that wont Flex like rubber when the torque comes on. then finally a full load of Nitromethane. anyone for a 5.99 outlaw rotary! soounds like fun to me. Ron in Tx.

ronbros3...as for nitro it cant be done in a rotary as nitro engines require at least 70 degrees of timing.the rotary cant do this physically.im still looking into the idea of it one day though.i havent looked at it extensivley yet but maybe spark plug holes could be relocated?....one day somebody will find a way....

If there are reportedly Oz P-Ports with 2-piece e-shafts and center bearings maxing out near 13,500RPM (not saying much power is made up that high), if these rotors are sorted and proven, we should be able to turn 14,000 with power all the way up! Sorta worried about longevity near the apex seal slots or ruining combustion pockets.
Let's see what the future holds my friends.

Papito and the crew of Time Machine, which are good friends of mine, made a small mistake when placing some information on this great site. I would like to take the time to make that correction. We, at E&J Autoworks, are the creators and designers of this rotor with the help of Alex Lopez, which without his help, could not be done. I want to take the time to thank one of my great friends, Leigh Cowlbeck and Alex Lopez for taking time from his busy schedule to build us a test motor. For any information on the rotors or upcoming news, you can visit WWW.eastcoastparts.com, lopez Racing or Papito from time machine, car with the "fastest 2 rotor with independent suspension". I also want to let every one know that we working on making the rotary motors more powerfull and reliable. We apologize for any misinformation which may have gotton out of hand. Thank You

The big problems will be: Gear and roll-pin install and wear. Bearing pressing and wear. And the big one is the seals wearing into the rotor.....i.e. the apex seal wearing ("rounding") the tip of the rotor from thier "side to side" movement. And the same goes for the side seals too.

Billet rotors are running
We finally got our rotors balance and installed on one of the car that we have at the shop. The final weight of the rotors at this time "3200 grams 1000 grams" lighter than the original. yea baby. We started the car yesterday and the car run for about an hour with no problem. the car starts great and the sound is so powerfull. What we found at this time is the response is just incredible, the oil pressure is 60 psi and we have 15 inches of vacuum. This car normally had 7 psi of boost on the two step and we now have 12 psi, a nice improvement.
we will have more news in the next few day. we are getting ready to put the car on the dyno.
We have a video of the motor that will be posted very shortly.
dont go away, we will be back with more news.
