I took my engine apart two night ago and this is what i find inside.

 

Nice! Quit putting 60lbs of boost through it!

 

^^ He He He good thing shafts are dime a 1/2 dozen, cause if they wern't you'd be crying really hard right now, kinda like if you plow your car into a poll cry, i'de be happy cause it means another chance to tear the engine apart a few more times, but then again i like doing stuff like that.

Holy **** man, I've never seen that happen. what do you think caused the faluire? Inperfection in the shaft or to much POWA

 

pictures 2 & 3 indicate the e shaft already had a deep crack in it for a period of time before it finally tuned into a two piece e shaft.

Were you trying to get it into 6th gear again? That is insane.

 

whats 20b series number do you have ,whats the number on your plate and rotor housing,just wanna see if i might have the same crank problems as you do.

Steve,

you need a new rotor housing? i got one for $500. FD.

Estimation on power when you broke it?

Damn talk about "Snap Torque" LOL

 

did this motor have step dowels?
this could be one of the reasons for the step dowel pins for the front iron.
the step allows the shaft to align the front iron, rather than the front iron
possible putting side pressure on the shaft due to machining imperfections.

Wow!! I guess you were right Steve, you do need a new E-shaft

 

Contact X-treme rotaries in melbourne, Australia for a billet 20B shaft.

You will never have that problem again....

Sure it wasn't the builders fault

 

You know how that goes.....the builder blames it on the tuner, the tuner blames it on the builder......

 

So what you're saying is that it's your fault ?

 

lol^

 

More accurately, that it's his fault, TWICE over
