Yeah. It would work pretty well. high displacement wankels don't suffer from "scale limit", (unlike gas engines) so, yes. (I just read up on it... I may or may no That's true. Wankels get no mileage whatsoever.
chop up the engine blocks of littler engines and weld them together until you get an 8 rotor engine block?
8 rotor rotary, even 4 rotor starts putting the eccentric under some stress, manageable, but at 8 rotors it might be problematic. The eccentric shaft in a rotary isnt as big and beefy as crankshaft in most automobiles, though I suppose if making an 8 rotor, you could use bigger rotors with a beefier shaft
My friend with the blue Dodge sold it, for $16,000. And just after a quick CL search, I did find a clean V10 truck as well. 98 3/4 ton 4x4, ECLB, 8.0L V10 auto, leather, power everything, 96,000 miles, $8450.
It would seem that some peoples google foo is not so hot. certainly not a practical engine (or even a good one) but someone did a 12 rotor.
I agree in most cases, V8 swapping an RX7, Skyline or Supra with the gorgeous engines that come in them is a crime. If there is no engine there when you get them though or it is too broken to fix, then I am less bothered. Now with a 240/180 or an M3 I could care less, V8 swaps are actually pretty awesome IMO but not for everything. This is my go-to video when someone says a rotary sounds terrible:
Honestly, all that does is reinforce my thought that rotary's are the most awful sounding thing out there. Just my opinion.
Funny enough, this just came across my facebook, and I feel it should be shared. Skyline with a twin-turbo 6.0.
That is actually pretty sick. I can't say I'd put one in a skyline, but it is definitely unique, and a lot more interesting than say another 240 with a KA or an SR in it, which every man and his dog has at a drift event.
