Actually, they are GM *evaporator* cores, the heat exchanger that's
mounted in the dash to cool the air.


Yep, I knew that about 2 minutes after sending the post. Condensor would
be the little radiator out next to the car radiator. Oh well, at least
someone knew what I meant! g

I've seen his installation on average about once a year for the last 10
years, & watched it evolve over the years from carbs to injection & from
the original 13B to the Renesis engine core. I think that if you ask him,
he'd tell you that they were 1. available, 2. affordable, 3. fit in the
stock cowl, 4. actually turn out to be fairly close to the right thickness
for a relatively high speed homebuilt like an RV-x.

All true, but he plain likes rotary engines, too. Maybe goes past like a
littke bit, even!

His work is sublime pragmatism. A marketing exec would go into cardiac
arrest just looking at it, but everything is carefully engineered to be
good enough with nothing extra.

Yep. Kinda' like the JB Weld around the fitting for the cooling fluid into
the _evaporator_ cores.
I definitely has a sound to it, screaming by on a low pass, though!
