Impressive!  Looks like they could use a bit better exhaust gasket for
sealing.  When the boost (and back pressure) got to high levels, you could
see the flames out from under the manifold bracket area.  Don't think I
would want to be standing around when that thing was at full tilt boogie.

Lets see 3 cubic inch/HP = 1664 *3 = 4992 cubic inch radiator Lets say it
was 24" high and 48" long - a somewhat larger core than we normally use for
our two rotors {:>).  Then 4992 / (24*48) = 4.33 inches thick.  A huge chunk
of cooling for sure.

Here's an interesting you tube video of a 1664 HP 4 rotor turbo rotary.
Look how hot the exhaust manifold gets!!
