A couple of reasons. One you are the builder. My liability would be

higher

if I gave you a ready to go product. Two, my inventory would be
higher
as I would have to have several versions for each different type of
manifold. Three the price would be higher if I had to do the
low tech drilling of the mounting holes.

Putting a rotary engine in is not as easy as assembling a kit.
The journey is the challenge and the goal in most cases.
If you just want to fly get a Lycoming.

The design is straight forward with simple low tech tuned organ
pipes
and we have plenty of data from Mazda tech papers proving that it
will work. What makes you think it won't?

  Just wondering if you have flown what you manufacture??....It
would

be nice to see if you

are getting the performance or data you state!  I don't want to
throw

good money after bad trying

different approaches with the induction system.
  Also if you can save someone time building it, then it's worth the

price offered.

Please don't hide behind liability, no one would sell anything if
that

were the case, I would hang

up my A&P.

It is easy to ignore product liability if you have nothing to lose.
Please don't buy it. Build your own.

Paul Lamar

No offense Tom, but, that's what we're all here for.  We've got a lot
of
"theorizing" going on and some, like Paul, are putting out pieces that
we're gearing up to put to use.  The proof is in the puddin' and we
ain't
there yet (mostly).  Some of us may very well be throwing good money
at
stuff that will end up on the cutting room floor, some already have.
If
you're looking for something to experiment with ante up.  If you're
looking
for off-the-shelf-flight-tested-FAA-PMA-TSO-stamped-products you're
in the
wrong store.   P-)

Well stated, Mike.  On the liability question the only course is to
do a good job and make no false claims.   Worrying about liability can
freeze a man in his steps.  Jerry
