if you use a sledge hammer to widen your front strut towers and frame rails, and then have the engine sitting off center, we could probably get it to fit...

or if we clocked the engine so the SC is straight up, we could possibly get it to work. just make sure we have a dry sump oil pan =]

It looks like the belt is routed incorrectly.

If you have an FC (which it seems you do) your car also has a CAS. That is unless someone has replaced it with a distributor from a 1st gen.

CAS stands for one of two things:
-Camshaft Angle Sensor
-Crankshaft Angle Sensor (although in rotaries it technically is an Eccentric Shaft Position Sensor)

You should do some research........ALOT of research!!!

Not sure he still has the videos out there of it running.. but its a mean ole nasty bitch of a engine.

When they were working on the Nitrous for it.. they had some clips up.. and it was a fire breathing, burping farting, backfiring.. monster of a howling critter.

I myself found it quite scary to hear run on NO2.

Kinda like a rotary with boost, and an explosion at the same time. Spooky.

I actually saw it run in person, well maybe it happened maybe it didn't you be the judge I don't want to get anyone in trouble. Seems as though it was before or right after 7-stock a few years back right outside the shop. There is a Hot rod shop right down the street that was giving them crap and well he just had to uncork the beast right past their shop a couple of times just to blow out the carbon........ Like I said maybe it happened, maybe it didn't.... you be the judge, all I know is that if I had the money and the chassis it would be my motor, I know what they spent building it.

HA HA HA HA Awesome...

DOnt get me wrong.. I have no DOUBT its a mean and nasty critter. Just a little on the scary side for me.

Kinda like that video of the 3 rotor? Or was it 4 rotor in AU that has a huge single turbo on a dyno that turns the entire exhaust system white hot.. with little spots of fire all over..

Yep.. lots of power.. but spooky.
