26B engine questions

Does anyone know where to find a 26B 4 rotor eccentric shaft or if it is even possible to get one?

Talk to a guy in the first gen forum named Chef EG 1 cause I think he was trying to build a car that he could use to go after a land speed record with. He was pricing out stuff like that. I think they are a few grand. Also, look for a web site about a company in England named Hurley motors (not sure of the spelling). They make multi-rotor engines. You don't think you can take a bunch of 12A or 13B parts and make a big four rotor engine do ya? Its a lot more complicated than that.

No i was thinking it worked like a triple rotor with a two sided rotor gear or what ever i knew it was harder than that. I think it would be cool to have a home built 787B for the street, and it would be fairly easy, the engine/tranny would be the hardest part

Fitting it in the car and getting the spark timing down is going to be a challenge. The whole project is going to be spendy. If you got the money for it though, then go for it.

Yes they can. Money talks and BS walks. I was there last year and they had one sitting there collecting dust. I hope it went to a good home.

I can get you a 4 rotor crank. You get them from Jeff Bruse from precision Engineering here in NZ
my brother and I are building a 4 rotor for his 323 drag car, different from JB's normal 4 rotor cranks though.
