Good thread!
Will keep reading! //magnus |
Ok, I have some good pics of the engine build. Here they are, enjoy!

The center rotor housing

keep up the reports, there's nothing cooler than a 3 rotor FC!

Center rotor in and e-shaft in place, ready for rear rotor.

Nice angle

Putting in the Apex seals in the rear rotor.

All bolted up, yeah. Finnaly, its back together. Now I can get going with this project.
|
Good Luck, keep the pics comin!:D

Just be mindful that going into to this project is not going to easy, and you may not generate the kinda numbers you think your going to get. Just dont get your hopes so high, and you wont be dissappointed. Hang out it in the 20B section.

Here are some pictures of the powder coated manifolds. I just got them back today.

those manifolds look bad ass!
Good stuff man! Good luck with the rest of the project! :cool: |
Well, I just put the engine inside the car, and all I can say is wow! This thing is figgin huge. I took the radiator out and the sway bar off and the front of the pully is about an inch from the condensor. I'll have some pics this weekend. Man this was supposed to be an easy project. Yeah right! Anyway, Yes the sway bar is an issue and for now its staying off the car I do have an idea though, I'll share it later. Also the water pump housing for the 20B sits really high for pretty much no reason they could have made the design alot better but oh well. the twin turbo piping will also hit as well as the stock intake going to the throttle body.
As I see it I have 2 options. 1 Use the 13B water pump housing. It bolts right on. Cut the twin turbo piping as well as the piping to the TB. Also the hood needs a little bit of cutting where the manifold sits in order for it to clear, not a big deal. 2 Leave everthing where it is and cut the N/A aluminium hood and blend in a cowl induction piece. What do you guys think, I need some opinions and even some other suggestions. Thanks, UsfDr |
man, i was looking at all the pictures of the turbo pipes and cringing. you have to cut and reweld them or make custom stuff. you also need to have a turbo 2 hood, the intake manifold tucks into the scoop. i'm using the 20b water pump housing in mine it fits fine, with a little trimming of the hood.
