I got the score of the year. I think.

So i just picked of a motor for my car. 12A with a aggressive street port. Some MSD blaster coils, Balanced rotors, Some old Rotors, FC Crank triggers, Stock plates fron and center, And a 13B lightened flywheel. All for the amazing price of 250 Bucks. Heres the picks.







Here is the album link also http://s644.photobucket.com/albums/u...sverneuil/Rx7/

Oh ya i am. Still got things goin through my head on what to do to make the most power. I have a Header, Flowmaster muffler and 2.5 inch exhaust. So it should be free flowing enough for it. Im thinking of Fuel injection. I have a RB intake and i found a company that makes a 4 injector TB that will bolt up. And now i have A fc crank trigger i can run a Megasquirt for fuel and timing with the fc coils i picked up. thats just one thing. Another is have a adapter made for the nikki to bolt up to the RB manifold and run it like that. Possibly giving sterling a call for a carb. This may be a lill down the road. I need to give all the parts i picked up some TLC. Some of the plates have rust on them and i need to put together a full rebuild kit. For that here are the plans. Atkins single piece cryo seals. Apex and side. Solid corner seals with the 3rd gen springs. Three window race bearings, I may have the rotors sent to RB to get race clearance and get the Pinned Gears so that i can take her to crazy RPM's.

RB doesn't snap-ring rotors anymore, according to peejay. Call and ask.

You formatted your post wrong. Too much side scrolling. Maybe a mod can rearrange the pics.

^i had that problem with the pix too on the comp at work. here at home they're fine. the port on the housing in pic #6 isn't ported. what i meant bout the exhaust port being too tall is that it may be closing too late and may have an affect on power. might be why the guy sold them cause it didn't run as expected. plus it being so uneven it may have been done free hand without a template. just going by what exhaust ports that i have seen.

pic 6 is a stock housing i got from him also. Just to compare to the massive street port. The engine ran. The reason why he sold it is because his ex wife took a sledge hammer to his Rx7's totaling all of them so he pulled what parts he could at the time and now he is movin From PA to the bronx and cant take all the parts he has. And ya i think the port job was done free hand also. I had noticed the unevenness. Hopefully itll have no effect on the performance. And i can check on that exhaust porting. If it does happen to be to tall i have my stock housing in car so i can take them to a local Rotary shop and have those done right. Or even the stock plates i have.

The ports look very uneven. I'd try to clean them up a bit before using them.
