Racingbeat over Pacesetter

that wasnt a bump, you cant bump in the 2nd gen specific thread....doesnt say you cant stump.
what the diff in between the two power wise, i already know PS is built like ****.
cause i wanna just get a header for now until i can afford a turbo motor so i can do a swap, yay...
my current motor has about 170000 on it so i dont wann dump hella money into it, but i wanna get a header while im driving it

Radial engines are simmilar, in the fact that they are positioned the same, but they are two different things. Read the WIKI article on non wankel rotary engines.

I said:
Then you said:
thanks for makin sure i was right
the one in my sig has an exhaust manifold
Well if it's a really early radial where they bolted the crank to the plane and the prop to the engine, then it's a rotary, if it's the other way around then it's just a radial. They did this to get away with not needing an exhaust manifold and such(since they all exhausted at the same place and they just left it open).![Icon Tup](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/icon_tup.gif)

Yeah... saw that too! Rotary ones have the crankshaft bolted solidly to the frame of the aircraft, and the "block" / prop (which are bolted together) rotating.

I vote RB. The pacesetter is very cheap, and does not fit on convertables. I doubt any HP difference.
Actually, as others stated above, the high horsepower gained through the exhaust is mostly contributed to the removal of the cats.

Nice pic! I've ran a pacesetter header, it bolted right up. There is surface rust because of the cheap steel, but there are no holes and you can sand off the rust. I bought them used because I plan on a turbo swap too. Best bang for your buck!
