Tyson is just very busy with a lot of other paid work projects etc. There are several other things almost as cool as the 12 rotor being worked on too...

This is Tyson, I have started messing with the 12 rotor again. I was busy for a few years building a new boat.

Start to Finish: Building Our 50' Skater - Offshoreonly.com

I will have a little bit of time soon to work on it again but was wondering if there were any really reputable people in the rotary industry that I should call or if they see this might be interested in working on the 12 rotor.

I do not have the experience in the engine that a lot of people on here do and I want to take the engine down to individual pieces and rebuild it the best it can be built (clearances, new seals, ect.). Then do some long endurance dyno testing on it. And try to get the most HP it can possibly make, put multiple turbos, ect. on it.

If anyone would be interested in working on it let me know.

Tyson

In the States would suggest Racing Beat or Atkins Rotary ... if going international would suggest PPRE or PAC Performance

I can't speak for anyone, but we have several good builders not too far from you. One is Jesse Prather in Topeka KS and the other is Kyle Seaman in Neosho MO.

Thumbs up Sweet Jesus, the 12-rotor lives

Welcome back Tyson! Great job on your new cat and exciting to hear you'll soon continue with 12-rotor development (disappointingly without Brad R.I.P).

Would be interesting to hear your lessons learned from dyno testing. Any compression data @ 200rpm? Figure that's the best indicator of the sealing quality of the initial build.

I'm willing to help if possible. I'd start with a discussion of your plan. We talked a while back at Sevenstock 14(?) and you've come a long way since then. That engine is mind-blowing, audacious, and bodacious all at once. Will PM you with details if you're interested.
