All I have to say is thank you to whoever god rid of the awful "Frankenstein" section name and divided out the sections.

I still would have liked to be able to post in the Engine Swap Forum section for universal stuff for example drivetrain or fuel system related discussions but this is better than it was before.

That will vary a lot between rotary and non-rotary, you want them all together or separated? There are always trade-offs ...

Not uptight at all, I just tried to make a joke on your joke Seriously, nothing against any type of rotaries whatsoever. I love the concept and the sound!

The RX8 of my dreams has one! The only reason I didn't go this route is that I plan to pay for my daughters' college. Lol!

You, at least used a proven system and were successful.
There have been many members attempt junker swaps that boast about how easy and cheap it'll be, then mock the members who try to advise them how difficult and expensive it actually is, then fade into oblivion.
Those are the ones that make the 'rotary guys' not take junkers seriously.
