this one is a 4x4, hes building a competition mudder out of it, the reason he wants a rotary is because thats the only way he will get any decent power, and still stay in the same class



they go by weight in mudding, not power

That is a very common swap for zuki's. One of my fourwheeler magazines had an article about different engines people used and they were talking about the rotary into the samurai's.
