That is Retarded as it is a RX8 Renisis motor they dont make the Horses the 13Bt make

Hopefully getting the clutch setup back tomorrow then I can remove the motor and fit the new Copper clutch set up

Blitz I got Video clips where ABF 16V T got serious hidings from a Stock rotor bug one night when we went out to play
When we got at the spot we heart these 2 guys up and down and thought holy moly they sound very very strong but when the flag dropped the bug was out the line 2 cars ahead and increasing gap was a interresting night
Adapterplates Available for Rotary in Beetle and others aswell
And Special Boxes built for Rotary Conversions and Scubies
