Hey guys,
Doing a term project on rotary engine developments using "strange materials." What I am looking for is a picture I saw a few months ago of a guy holding up a renesis housing (correction, I think it was the whole engine and weighed like 88lbs) with just his arms. It was made of aluminum if I remember correctly... Does anyone have this saved or have a link to the information? I have searched for the last hour on this site and google with no luck.

Thanks for your help! In exchange (since I feel I should post something when asking for help) My favorite new picture of my 8...

heres a pic of the housing

 

Curious about the "just his arms" part... Was he not using hands? lol... Just wondering if that last part was an important detail or it's just a dude holding a housing.

 

Fair enough... No it was a guy holding up an entire engine (corrected that) that had been made from aluminum or something similar... unless I imagined it; which would be highly unfortunate.

 

whole engine? hmm... I can see someone picking up and 88 lb engine, but that seems too light I would think, even for aluminum. I'm sure someone else would have better input about it than me. I would like to see more info/pictures if this was real.

 

Sevenstock 2008? Racing Beat I believe.

I think this is what he is looking for:

 

Turbosmart also makes aluminum center plates for the 20b
and I would love to put these in there

 

Here's a full peripheral port version of that piece.

What are the chances of a Renesis version being available?

Paul? Anybody?

 

i want aluminum rotors and housing....

and what pp 13b DOESNT make 300hp?

 

Exactly what I was looking for!! Thank you very much.
