The 93 and 95 engines are too rare to support with a dedicated

I think only about 500 95 RX7's were sold in the US. I know
only 500 RX7's were made and sold in the last year of manufacture.

Since at least 18,000 RX8 motors will be imported into the US next
year
we will do a new lower manifold for the RX8 motor.
Paul,

Over 8000 third gen 93-95 usa models were sold alone. 1993 was the
biggest year. Many more internationally.

The cars in the states are still selling for about $15,000
so third gen motors are not cheap. That tends to limit the market
for aircraft use.

Paul, there few US second hand engine dealers that import huge containers
full of very nice used engines from Japan. I know one that goes there about
every 6 months to pick them himself.

So how many have 3rd gens. engines? 3? 4? Yours is a Cosmo which is different
even than a third gen.
