Trochoid, I've decided to redo all of that area with fiberglass instead of using bondo. I think that it will work out a whole lot better in the long run. Plus, nobody will ever be able to see that I've modified it from how it originally was. That's what is most important to me.
Cliff, it was great meeting you and your wife at SSX this year. Hopefully we can get together again next time I'm in SoCal.

But the Avatar doesn't use an intercooler. It's a draw through carb setup. So the exit of the compressor housing is only about 4" from the intake ports. It's a straight shot. I'm already trying to work out a way that I can run water injection on the car without anyone being able to see that it's there. I just want to added safety measure more than anything.

I didn't need to post the thing about the intercooler. The correct wording should have been "Charge-Cooling". The whole point of my post was that E85 fuel might be then next best thing since sliced bread - especailly for a draw thru set-up.
The cooling effects of the fuel are amazing. I firmly believe that one could run 15psi with no charge-cooling of any kind on this fuel.

That makes 2 of us dj55b. I do hope that it will go to a good home. Otherwise, I'll just have to ship the car back to Arizona and look for money elsewhere.

The person who bought the car has plans of debuting it at SevenStock this year last time I talked to him. Not sure if that's still the plan or not. But I do know that this car went to the right home! The new owner is the definition of a rotary enthusiast and is one hell of a nice guy to boot.
