If you don't mind I forwarded your message and pictures to the
rotary@earthlink group and rx7 group that is real interested in your 4 rotor.
You might want to email yourself and introduce yourself. I am sure they would
have questions!

At the bottom of my page (link listed below), I posted some pictures of
my one-off 4 Rotor Outlaw Dirt Late Model I built and raced a few years
ago. It was made of a couple 4 port 13Bs and was competitive against the
Alcohol injected small block Chevys it ran against. It weighed in at
1800 lbs. I'm proud to say that I designed, bent and welded the chassis,
engineered and machined the coupling of the engines, bent and painted
the tin, and drove the car. Direct drive only with a special fabricated
gearbox I built that had a motorcycle clutch in the countershaft. We had
to use the deepest gears available for the quick change (with around a
9.50 rear gear, driveline balance was pretty important). The class
folded when the cost of fielding a competitive car far exceeded the
purses to be won. Low car counts killed them off. Has to be a lesson
there somewhere about having only about a paragraph of rules.
