i saw a Combi a few years back that had a 13B rotary on it. There used to be a guy in Sydney who made adaptors for just about anything!! i was going to put a 13B turbo into a Gemini at one stage :D

That should be awesome, but it's still only a 6 cylinder engine! I think i've got a kombi coming in which is still running its leaded motor, and i'll have to change it for another motor, just need to work out what one with the guy.

one question about that motor, has it been painted in silver paint? if it has it looks like all the pulleys have been sprayed, wont all the bearings get clogged up

Doesn't look like it's been painted, looks to me like a new motor, maybe a crate motor! When they get used then they start to discolour and change.

Sorry, my monitor for my server automatically darkens everything that is displayed over the normal input. Just switched to HDMI becasue it doesn't get darkened, and i can see it now!
I can see someone's going to have fun working on that engine! :p
