Rotary engine in a Corvette swap

[KeithP]

I stumbled across this the other day, some guy is putting a rotary engine in Corvette. I have only watched the first video so far but judging by the last video it is not complete yet. I enjoy weird engine swaps like this, thought others might as well.

From his first video, talking about a ratcheting crescent wrench…

13 means half inch in foreign

My kind of mechanic.

That's an unusual choice. I would not be excited about losing the low end of the LS!

Also a great way to lower the reliability even further imo... and to make the car sound terrible.

Rotaries might be lighter and spin faster but that's pretty much where to pros stop.

"Even further"..? The C5 is pretty solid.
