I see notched housings and a monster port!

 

Zoom Zoom?

 

Give ya 5 bucks =]. haha

One question...how did you NOT know you had monster ported irons and housings in your garage?!?! Who did the port job? Cause that looks nice and FAST.

 

My Daddy. :]

 

How is this of all things in the non-technical section? Asking for an explanation on parts? Interesting selection, indeed.

 

I concur

 

someone explain to me on how that port would work?!!! unless you use one peice apex seals, wont the corner seal's pop out?

:AA:

 

wondering the same thing and how the water oring keep it all sealed and not leaking water?

 

What port are you referring to? The top two are pics are monster bridgeports, I guess what you might call a J-port. The seals stay in place because of the small bridge of metal left between the ports.

 

As far as sealing, the old Racing Beat catalogs explain the modifactions necessary for sealing a J-port, but I can't remember what you do exactly off the top of my head.

 

ill tak some pictures of the apex seals when i get home form school.

 

 

Wrong. The end-pieces will get wedged in the cutout in the rotorhousing, one piece seals is the way to go here. The bridge keeps endpiece, sideseals and cornerseals from falling into the port in the iron, not the housing.
As seen on the latest picture, that's what Markus' dad seems to have allready known, I may add that in a high rev engine I will reccomend using carbon seals.

Looks like Daddy had a serious rotary addiction back in the day, good for him. I suggest you post the pics of the irons and housings in the rotary engine building section over at NoPistons. I'mm guessing Howard Coleman may have some sage words of advice for you.

Is the a clutch disc and counterweight to go with the flywheel and pp?

 

Ya those are carbon seals mister.

Maybe I will. Ill go check out nopistons. Later.

As for the flywheel. IDK It is alluminum. But as for what its from or where IDK.

 

Cool stuff, are you gonna build a motor from the parts you FOUND! WTF, lol awesome find

 

in the second picture is it me or is the bridge cracked?

 

yikes, looks like, pull out the JB Weld, rofl

 

No it is just a light scratch. Good eyes tho.

 

Thats the plan.
