I have a 13 B with two 36 Delorto`s .. The turbo is still connected and i am looking for expert advice on how to connect the Turbo to run with the Delorto`s or not.
The motor is currently in a frame and running good... It will go into my project Car but i need to assemble and plan it all before my next step of fitment. Any contact names of rotary experts are welcome.

Best guy in Cape Town is Dave Kopke at Power Conversions (at Killarney)
Not cheap but he knows his story - last I spoke to him it sounded like he is fully booked for this year though.....

You could try Peanuts Fouche at Fouche Engineering they do rotaries but mainly for oval track racing i think but he's worth a try

Dave Kopke has that wicked Mazda R100 coupe that is very fast. Think that it was racing in historics or some other class...

Thanks to all of you. I will try Dave Kopke, i have some Budies doing Ford 1600 X flow - Anglia racing with him in the CAR magazine Classics. I know the classic cars can only run Carburetors so he might be the one to talk to.

I asked Peanut, but hell it is with a lot of effort and begging. He is busy with his own project to race at Killarney so time is limited on his side.

Do not stop giving me names all of them will be explored. Any way here is some pictures of my current set-up.

When you call me again I can give you some other info of guys you can try there in the CPT to do some of the work we have spoken about


Here is a picture of the blank off plugs that I told you about where the metering pump oil gets pumped in to the motor
but you got a Series 5 motor so the electronic controller is in the Factory ecu so these get blanked off and premix in the fuel
On the pic where the piece of cloth is pushed in to the 2 holes is where the 2 primary injectors sit is those 2 holes blanked off take some pics of that aswell and e-mail them to me
It all depends on if the carbs will be able to supply enough fuel under boost those 2 holes might be needed again

Here is a pic of the 228mm yellow kitt that you will be getting with your adapter and the left 2 are beetle 200mm

O ja very importand when you blank the oil squirters check the length of the Thread from the ones yu remove and make sure to use locktite and not to screw them in to deep as the Rotors apex seals will be ruined
