Mazdatrix is building a three rotor P-port engine
     with RX8 rotor. The slots have been opened
     up for 3 mm Ianetti ceramic apex seals.
     The carb was scavenged from a Porsche engine.
     Should be around 450 HP at 9000 RPM or so
     without too much trouble.

Paul,
Those inserts look great. Do you know if the small fillet at the outside
edge of the housing is epoxy or did they tig the spigots? Or perhaps I'm
not seeing the picture correctly.

BTW Francois do you have plans to cast a 3 rotor wide
intermediate housing. Mazda is sold out of them. Guru racing
is making three rotor E-shafts but there is no source currently
for the cast iron wide intermediate 3 rotor housing.

Seems to me there is a much bigger market demand in auto racing
for that casting. You may wind up with the only source of 3 rotor
engines in the world :)

Yes Paul,

We are going to make our own cast-iron side- and intermediate housings,
including the intermediate bearing housing for the 3-rotor.  The casting
molds are in the making.  However, the intake ports will be a proprietary
design, compatible to both normally aspirated and turbocharged versions.  It
will make them non-obvious to retrofit on 20B car engines.

I send you in attachment a picture of our G-300 prototype.  Others can be
found on our website.

See you at OSH.

Francois

Wow that 3 rotor is going to make a BIG SPLASH at OSH.
Beautiful work Francois. You are a huge credit
to the rotary movement. You are doing a fine job.

Glad to hear that. The next step is a four rotor:)

Yes I know. I have some pictures of your end and center
housings iron castings for the two rotor.

Most of the racing guys build their own intake manifolds anyway.
Also many of them convert the engines to P-ports so
the side intakes are irrelevant.
