Go Inside The World's Only 12-Rotor Engine
In its current form, the unit should supposedly be capable of hitting 10,000 rpm and producing up to 800 pound-feet of torque at 2,000 rpm.www.motor1.com
12 rotors, same size as a big block.

My first car was a 1960 ford falcon station wagon that I got in 1968 sans the housewife (unfortunately for my 16 year old self). POS had a 144 inline 6 with a 3 on the column. My friends and I would take it skiing and it could barely go 10 miles per hour over Loveland pass (pre-tunnel days). It was a piece of crap but it was my crap . Couldn’t out run a kid on a tricycle either! My second car was a 3/4 ton Chevy pickup that was a beast. Used to camp and fly hang gliders Have great memories of life with that truck! Never had a real car like you guys
I grew up with a dad that was a car guy, which I am, and although I'm predominately ford theres been lots of others
Dad started as a chevy guy and morphed into a ford guy, predominately because, and I'm sure theres those that will debate, he needed a truck, and ford builds better trucks in terms of capability to take abuse and keep going
kit car 428 cobra, 68 camaro's, 68 mustangs, a pair of 442, 77 trans am, 77 911
I love the 911 the most but the one time I got to drive the cobra, I got it, I get why its such an important car, it was 2018 and it was still put the fear of gobble in you fast, something from the 60's, shifting into 3rd at 100 and borderline missing the shift cause milliseconds ago you were comfortable in 2nd, that car was superlative to anything else built in its time.

So was the Sunbeam Tiger... and it was a real sleeper. Nobody figured it had a 289 under the hood.

Anyone else smell burning oil? LOL
Seriously though, these little engines are awesome. AMC owned the rights to them for a while. It was SUPPOSED to be the power plant for the Pacer but AMC couldn't afford to develop them into a viable engine for a car so they sold it to Mazda IIRC.
right and it really is a shame, theres so much potential, someone earlier posted about smoking a 5.0 fox in one, and all things considered, for the time, stock vs. stock, not really an easy accomplishment but ain't nobody want a 10k mile engine

442, now we're talking. Oldsmobile built an awesome power plant. As did Buick and Pontiac. But again, they lacked aftermarket support to make them really popular mills.
I've have had to watch so many cool cars go because I'm poor, including a GSX with a 455 that was super clean. An orange and white 69 Z28 auto car sans driveline for $4k too. Let go of my fairly clean and complete blue 84 Monte Carlo SS as well because I just have too many projects.
even if they hadn't been a my dad thing, 442's are a favorite, ain't nothing classier ever rolled out of gm. He'd tell you about how he got pulled over for doing 150 on the nevada autobahn in one, at least I know where I get it from
speaking of gm thats not chevy

And would anyone pass up a well priced wedge window Dart GT?
I wouldn't, or a chally, or a charger, mopar was super cool
but reasonably priced they aren't, and falling back on the for the common man, hp/dollar they worse than ford

I have a buddy working on a 440 powered GTX. Chrysler parts are unobtainable....
Someone hacked up his k-member. It's got big slices and places folded up. And there's no real reason for any of it that we can see. It's not to clear exhaust and they didn't remove any pieces so it wasn't to lighten it. It's nuts.
Luckily the 440/383 k-member is not completely impossible to find like the Hemi car k-member. But it's still gonna cost him some coin.
