   Hi Paul,
   would there be a case here for a 4 rotor ala Le Mans engine?
   No need for the variable inlet, just copy the winning combo. :)
   BR, Dave McC

   Perhaps.

   BTW David, contact Dave Garber. He has two Bell 47 final drives
   PSRU's already adapated to the Mazda bolt pattern and that have flown.
   Good for about 1000 HP. He is an ex Pan Am pilot and Reno fan so
   he might loan them to you. I think Doug on here has his address and
   phone number.

   Also doing well at Reno ought to be worth millions to Mazda corp.

I saw Dave Garber's plane (the twin Mazda rotary)  in Trade a Plane.
