I like the Wankel engine concept, very few moving parts compared to a regular pistion engine. However so far they don't seem to have the longevity as initially assumed. Under most circumstances I wouldn't want one as a daily driver because of their poor gas mileage. The exception to this thought would be if I could have a 3 rotor C111 or the 4 rotor C111-11!!

Unfortuanatley they are unavailable at any price. But one can always dream.

As for rodding a Rotary engine, no big deal. They're just another form of power plant like the VTwin, V3, V4, v6, V8, V10, V12, I3, I4, I5, I6, I8,I12 I16 and so on and so forth. Building a hotrod is a personal thing, you should always do what you want and ignore the critics.

BTW, Welcome to the forum. Hope you stick around, our bark is much worse then our bite.
