Hello,
I just joined yesterday, no experience with
rotary
engines, but will like to know if I can find an
engine
in the 100 HP range (not less but maybe up to
125+)
and no more than 200 lbs installed weight (without
propeller).
I am looking for alternatives for the 0-200 or the
Corvair engine...
Thank you all in advance

A one rotor with a peripheral port and Tracy's PSRU
will come
close to that spec.

Thank you Paul. Is there a web page where I can see
this engine conversion, specifications and prices?

Probably one of the best places to get a one rotor is Dave Atkins.
http://www.atkinsrotary.com/ You might want to buy just the
e-shaft and counter weights from Dave and build your own. I don't think
Dave Atkins does peripheral ports but I could be wrong.
Don't let him talk you out of them. You will not get the
power you are looking for without peripheral ports unless you
go to a turbo charger. A turbo charger would put the engine
over your weight limit specs.
