How many build
I was just curious to see how many people do there own work on there rotary.. Friend of mine just moved back and i just got my hands on a 1st gen and we are goin to start to build my motor.. I havent done one in a while.. the last time we made one to rome the streets we beat almost anythin on the streets with just motor.. my only loss was to a old guy in a blue s10 with a big motor and slicks i was with him at his bumper but it was still a loss.. but once i build this project i look forward to meeting u guys.. i will be postin pics as i go along with the project.. If you have pics of yours post them..
go FAQ urself . . .

Almost everyone with a 1st gen works on their own stuff! If you dont work on it, you buy a 2nd or 3rd gen, because you got money then! Sounds like a good plan to me. Dont forget the Direct Fire Ignition ! ! ! It is a must on first gens!

One guy in our club runs a weber on a 13B stock 6 port, it runs mid 11s in the quarter.
I think he is running the 46 mm weber, but its a dual stack design.
We found that larger carbs are not as good a power producer as a smaller ones, the velocity of the air has alot to do with making more power.
