A few years back I bought an old rx7 with a blown engine with the view to shove a rover in it. I never did the conversion because of the diff ratio and could not be arsed to get that involved with chopping another one in there, but I will never forget how light the engine was. One bloke can just pick it up and shove it on the bench. There has always been the debate on the capacity of these things. When norton ran a wankle bike it was a winner and its capacity was put into question like the mazda winning leman car. i cant think of a lighter car engine.
