rotary
the kit from kennedey clutches is 400. and i think you have to run a radiator, which means some water pipping work. if your gonna do it, do the turbo rotary. it would be impressive to see it done.

I read about the subject me too and it appears to me that the hardest parts are the wiring and the rebuilding/porting of the motor.
For the wiring, someone told me that if you keep the Stock EFI, you need to keep the original cluster because it wont works without it. Now, I checked and may be a Megasquirt can solve the problem, but again, the problem is to make it running well with the rotary. If you choose to go in carb'd mode, youll have to buy a new intake manifold and a carb setup. I heard many times that the setting of carb with rotaries are PITA so they recommend to go with the Holley Kit that is ready to install and already setted for 6 ports (N/A) and non ported 13B. The radiator and piping is not hard at all. Only the calibrating of the thermostat is touchy and that's all. |

That's just ridiculous, I have never seen a van come off the ground like that unless it had a V8 in it. Amazing!
