    Default Rotary Porsche 914

    Any of you old school guys have experience in this? Or 911 rotary could be similar, or VW.

    I REALLY want to keep the 914 but have to find some reliable powerpant, rotary I could even keep it carbed to keep the swap cost down, I found an adapter to use my transaxle. Mounts is the main thing.

    If I can do this cheap, I'll keep it.

    someone on here Eraser456...... or something (I think that's who it was) used to own the yellow Rotary 911.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    Yea, Subbie motors are simple. So actually are the Renegade hybrid kits to put the V8s in it. I'm waiting for my buddy to call me back on the 914.
