    Rob and isiah are single-handedly showing the world that things like this are possible!

      @Rya 31 well of course they did. It costs hundreds of millions to develop a production car. I think he mentioned in one video he has a little over $100k into this car. Mad Mike and plenty of others have built very strong reliable rotary engines. The truly amazing thing about Rob and his friends is they did this all by themselves. Built the whole thing and learned everything from complete scratch and done something no one else has. That said if I had a ton of money and didn't work a 9 to 5 I could also do something amazing. But one can dream.

    10:55 swagelok sells stainless compression. McMaster doesn't have according to Hoyle swagelok, but their "yor-lok" is compatible and comes in stainless.

      You can always track down proper swagelok as well, but I think you might have to order that direct from them.
