    I didn't have time to go through all the stuff i have on the engine.
   there is a sheet attached that the previous guy gave me on what he
   spent on it. he also gave me the receipts for the build. i have some
   specs tracy crook from real world solutions(think hes retired now).
   he took the ross drive that was created for rotary engines and
   improved upon it. he also created the engine controllers and
   monitors. he has been working on rotary engines since 1997. on his
   rv-4 he was getting 6gph@172mph/ 8.2gph@202mph. top speed of 224mph
   with 200hp. the mustang is a faster plane than a RV. you can burn 87
   octane fuel as long as it doesn't have ethanol or you can burn avgas.
   i can get more pics maybe tomorrow otherwise it wont be til Sunday
   night. any specific questions feel free to ask.

   Here are the pictures of the engine,  it is currently mounted on a tricycle gear MM2.  It comes with full package to include cowling propeller and spinner.  also the engine mount minus the front gear since I have a tail dragger.  all of it looks exactly what I was wanting for my MM2.

   Please let me know what you think or if anything should be updated in your expert opinion.

   Thanks, Jake Link

   You need to shorten the intake runners to 18" to 20" engines for more power
   with a 2.85:1 PSRU. Take off RPM will be 6500 to 7500 engine RPM.

   Also you will need my cooling book.

   Shield the lower left motor mount bushing  with ss from the 1500 F exhaust pipe.

Jake, thanks for the pics. It is sad to see such potential in a project go unfinished. Let's hope you get a good deal on the FWF package, and get another rotary in the air.
