Any Build Threads with a happy rotary ending?!

And when the **** are they going to fix that damn search drop down for touch devices?! I made a thread about this a few years ago and the response was to pay for and download a multiple forum app for my iphone. As a web developer myself, it would probably take me all but 5 minutes to fix it.

Well Aaron as usual you have excellent points, I went with the undivided simply due to price and availability at the time, I may cut the undivided flange off and make it into a divided in the future but ill see how it works first, I'm planning on running a s363 with a .88ar undivided, also in regards to quality parts I'm using a 340lb aero motive pump with an aeromotive canister fuel filter housing with all new lines and cleaned out or new tank, running with aeromotive FPR as well 4x1000cc ID injectors and my own wiring harness from the ps1000 using mostly deutch and weatherpak connectors, the builder of the short block Adam heyman of rx7 specialties has nothing to do with the selection of apex seals, I got them directly from the owner of NRS who suggested the 3mm due to my concern of doing what I could possibly do to make it as durable as possible, your right while there may be no beneficial proof of running 3mm seals, I still believe a ceramic plate for instance that is 50%thicker would be more resistant to impact shatter while a 2mm would technically give you increased pressure over the rotor housing therefore better sealing, also would be lighter, and technically more "stroke" (piston term i know but not sure how to relate to rotary) but alas I believe it will be a potent and reliable setup, also I rebuilt my alternator and actually have less load than stock so should be good there, also running high temp synflex lines for all vacuum/boost lines which eliminates the chance of blowing off a line ... It works good in the industry I work therefore I see it as another quality upgrade... Also my intermediate and rear housings were cracked due to rotor smashing into them, yet I was told blown apex seal when I had bought the car oh well, it's all good now nothing much is from the original motor except the front housing which is in really good condition... But all said and done with my existing and planned upgrades and according to the general opinions I should have a really reliable beast

Also it's to bad you have some flammers Aaron your attention to detail is incredible, I have some issues with your safety practices but other than that you seem like a knowledgable and overall good guy willing to help less knowledgeable people like myself without asking anything in return

But I agree. If the mobile skin is broken in iOS, then fix the damn mobile skin. Which still, by the way, somehow manages to pull down 250K of data per page!

also in regards to quality parts I'm using a 340lb aero motive pump with an aeromotive canister fuel filter housing with all new lines and cleaned out or new tank, running with aeromotive FPR as well 4x1000cc ID injectors and my own wiring harness from the ps1000 using mostly deutch and weatherpak connectors,

Depends on how much you pay for the massage.

First off lmao at "depends on how much you pay for a massage" anyways as I said if I didn't already have the undivided I would gladly switch to a divided manifold, I'm unsure if I'm able to somehow turn my current undivided into a divided but may be worth looking into, after all it's already tubular... Lol I actually have that how to build a rotary in my kobo I've read it twice, pretty good read... But what I really need to do is get back to working on my project and get the engine back in the car!
