Hi Paul

Offerred up the Power Turbine to the blown 20b engine of ours today - it's big and heavy!
Not really sure how I am going to fit it - and plumb the exhaust. You can see the output
shaft may just line up OK with the drive belt - with a drive pulley mounted to the rear
end of the shaft. More pondering required here.

Glad to have your e-mails coming through again. Very informative.

Its 50 year old tech Paul. Would be a lot lighter if designed for the Mazda
and not 300 HP you are asking from the turbine. 1500 HP total. Will be a world
record HP from a Mazda rotary engine let alone suffed into an RX7.
