So, here is an item from the 2nd quarter 1985 issue of "The 170 News". The heading was "WANKEL ROTARY ENGINE CONVERSION" with a write up on the aircraft engines provided by Duncan Aviation Engines from Comanche OK. They offered single and dual rotor, 27 to 70 cid, 40 to 350 hp engines. A 200 hp engine for the 170 weighs in at 240lbs, has a 3000 hour tbo and sold (1985) for $4000.
Where are they when we need them? 1985 eh?
Count your blessings that Mr. Duncan is gone :-) More than one person lost
his money sending it to Mr. Duncan.
