Once had this kid come asking for a Kenudder valve for a IDG (F-15 Part, think really big alternater). Turns out I was the fourth guy on the list in his run, so I had it look as official as I could. Started going through my books, some 8 of them alot like War and Piece just bigger; finally I came to the info I had been "searching" for. I told him the bad news was I did not have them but I knew where they were. Seems only one aircraft on the base had one. I made up the story that a civilian would be waiting for him at the end of this 6 mile road in a shack with tools. All this kid had to do was tell him what he needed and the old guy would help out.

Did you know that there are two Mustang prototypes with Wankel engines from the factory - John Deere owned one for awhile.

That's interesting...

I wonder how it does over the stock engine, or if its just for grins and giggles.

It was early, like 1964 1/2 I am of the understanding it was just to see how it would work and it did not turn out favorably enough to pursue. I was invited to an auction once that was going to sell off the one John Deere had owned for years (don't recall who the owner was at that time) and had to timeline its ownership back to Ford to prove it was authentic - I didn't bother going to the auction.

I just did a little search on it. googled "wankel mustang" for anyone who cares.

A company put it in a 'stang to try to sell the idea to ford. Didnt fly.

It dropped in HP, but was much lighter, and supposedly improved 0-80 time.

I also found this at a mazda forum: its the engine bay of a newer 'stanghttp://img147.imageshack.us/my.php?i...ures018dw5.jpg
