3 Rotor e-shaft

does anyone have a CAD drawing of a 3 rotor e-shaft? i work at a machine shop and i asked my boss today if he could make one. he said if he looked at a detailed drawing or a CAD drawing and knew the exact specs of it he would tell me if he could or not.

same thing for a downpipe or an AST, those he said he could defintely make and could even draw it up himself, but it would be helpful if they already exist.

Another good reason is that you can no longer buy a new one from Mazda. Also all the custom shafts cost as much as a short block.

why not get a factory one, and use it to come up with your own drawings?

There is a company in Australia who makes e-shafts machined out of a solid billet that are superior to stock. I have a peripheral port block that they also custom fabricate. There is a guy in Puerto Rico making 1400hp with one. Their stuff is not cheap but it is of amazing quality. They brought this stuff to PRI in Miami 2 years ago and I got the block because they did not want to pay to ship back. Someone else got the rotating assembly before I had a chance.

E-shaft is $1100.00
Sideplate is $1300.00
