We've created this thread for new to rotary members so they won't be intimidated and other members learn from it without much of hassle.

So that rotary will live...

Before I look at your PM:

You edited your post while I made mine. I know where you got your formula from.

Both of them actually.

So, the formula for power is a long one. Would you like that in kW or HP?

LOL

Rotorheads? Long shot but, I'll go for that!

Newbie Group: Member Posts: 23 Member No.: 337 Joined: 19-September 04	You're close. The number is off. According to Japanese legend there was a number of samurai who revenged their lord after years of hardship. Mazda's rotary engineering group had the same number, hence the nickname some gave them.
