Take alook at my new 12att!!

I'll try to post some pics but can't promise anything. Sorry about the lack of light I'll try to take some new ones and post them up. I'm going to be painting afew things to make presentation worthy. I decided to go with the EFI set-up but all I know is carburated rotary engines so I'm apt to need alittle help. I guess my first question is I seem to be missing something, and I honestly feel alittle embarassed that I have to ask but, in one of the pics theres a spot circled in red( thats saying they worked) I have this giant empty spot on the top of the engine. I know what goes there on a carburated 12a but not sure what goes there on an EFI setup. Please alittle help would be muchly appreciated as I am in the dark. Perhaps I should have just stayed with what I know but hey thats part of the fun...I think.

Most likely its for the rats nest (emissions crap). Obviously its not on your engine and I hope you don't need to e-test it, because it deffinately won't pass. Might be able to use a carb 12A rats nest if you really need to.

those pictures make it a bit hard to tell but if you are going with an EFI setup you need to make sure you have a throttlebody. it does essentially the same thing as the carb - minus all the fuel junk. just some runners with butterflies. not sure if that 12AT manifold has a throttlebody on it or not.

the only possible way (other than super expensive fine tunning computers) to pass emissions would be if you use propane instead of gasoline. The advantage on the high octane elimanate knock and also the clean burning properties would help extend the life of the engine. I have herd of some great 12at propane setups giving like 660hp from the down under. If i had the money that would be the path i would choose

yah, i removed all the smog crap and left just the essentials he would need to get the engine running good, and the motor looks alot better too....

the motor has a u.s. spec SE throttle body mounted to the stock 12a turbo intake manifold.. did some other trick mods , but i dont want to give everything away!!
this thing is going to fly!!
