2 13B motors can be hooked up, one in front of the other, giving a 4-rotor configuration.... only problem is that the front part of the rear engine's eccentric(crank)shaft usually ends up getting twisted, because it is not thick enough the handle the torque coming through from the front motor. A more feasible approach would be to put the 2 motors side by side, in tandem, both running on a 1/1 gear, driving the flywheel... but this calls for some seriously heavy machining and financial commitment.

a little update.... I'm busy with a rapidly firing fuel detonator for the engine. the Rotary has a duel ignition system, so the electronics of the CDI unit needs to be done in 2 for every thing..... hopefully this thing will work as good as I'm hoping it would.... now just to find a place that's willing and able to sell me a couple of SCR's....
