OMG, that silver Mustang would make most Mustang owners cry.

Yea I'm sure it would. We are posting it as "wow isnt that cool" and it would be in a mustang forums "what not to do to your car" thread.

I think you could put it in almost any car due to its size, may have to make it a rear wheel drive car afterwards. lol Don't know if any front wheel drive tranny will marry up with the rotary.

This engine could replace a rotary, but if your refering to pistonless then this isnt it.

Sorry

Not knocking you opinion with the whole :rock: on the rotary-hybrid, but...

A rotary-hybrid would make me :puke:then :tear:

Problem is it may just well happen which will then lead me to many of these :beer05: and more :puke:and :tear:

Well, keep an open mind. Sure, right now, hybrids are used solely for increasing gas mileage. Soon, we'll see performance versions where the two power sources will work together and they will absolutely rock. Think of instant torque in the low end combined with horsepower in the top end.

I have not found a single Hybrid car yet that I would like to own. The ones that I've driven (Insight, Prius, Lexus whatever, Civic, Camry, and a couple SUVs) were just not fun to drive at all.

But I would certainly consider the technology when it comes in a high power version.

i would love to have a rotary with the option of running on batteries or whatever technology for city driving. City driving is what kills the MPG on the rotary anyway:crying:

I'm not a ford fan but that Mustang with the 20B is pretty awesome. Would love to hear her run. I bet it sounds pretty nasty....in a good way
