Justanother7 2nd time is a charm build
 

Well after losing thousands of dollars with Zn performance, and getting a crappy engine build and tune from Zavier. I was ready to throw in the towel and do an different engine swap. But family and friends all knowing how much i love rotaries, said that i will not be happy with going that route. They were 10000% correct so i agreed with them and went full steam ahead........

Pulled the engine pre winter with a good friend

Well it definitely needed paint after pulling the engine

Sanding and priming engine bay that was done over the fall

Painted satin black

decided to go with a 13b re cosmo upper and lower intake system. one of my favorites

sorry forgot to post pic of my car that the build is happening too

Full Function Goodies Fuel rails, engine mounts and crank pick up. Great guys and great products

Super Seals and gaskets. Huge fan of the super seals

stripped and painted front cover with ceramic engine paint that is suppose to withstand oils etc.. time will only tell

Well decided to go black and purple powder coatings on engine parts

Rotor's machined and Cleaned up, New rotor housings, plates machined with large street ports. all this great work done by Ryan with shookmotorsports.

Cont..Engine build From Shook Motorsports

I've been waiting to see some stuff from ya! Looking REAL good my man. Where's the progress at right now? Running? Seeing my irons put to good use puts a smile on my face!

Check my build thread if you haven't already...my baby is running good.

Moving along pretty fast should be completed from Ryan at Shook motorsports March 24, or sooner then to body shop for about two weeks. Ill keep posting updates a little behind on posting

Engine was installed this past weekend.

His is running cuz he basically stole my reman irons and turbo :P

Shook Motorsports is awesome, met them at the Evolv BBQ couple years back.

Can't wait to see it finish, cause we don't have enough BB :p:

Just enough turbo to put me well in the 500hp mark :nod:

Awesome!!

looks good! Love the FFE engine mounts, would love to see some pics of them mounted on the engine :)

They are very sexy looking mounts, here you go on the way they look

I agree shook motorsports is awesome, he takes his time making sure its perfect when he installs something or during the engine build. What a Huge difference from dealing with zavier "ZN Performance"....

Highly recommend Shook hands down

OP, i'm wondering why you're using hylomar on the legs of the housings and irons instead of sealant.
any input?

Thanks for the pics. They look awesome! I noticed in the previous photo you got the 85A stiffness, please let us know how you like them once you get the car on the road. Ever since I saw the FFE engine mounts I wanted a pair...now I'm just debating whether I should get the softer or stiffer durometer...hmm

I also noticed you used the middle hole one the bracket. I believe the top hole is the stock height, right? And they go down in 0.5 inch increments...are you using an oil pan brace?

I will give you an update once i get on the road mid april.

I believe the center hole was stock height, but i will end up using the lower hole. Because the Cosmo intake sits higher than the stock intake.

Yes i'm using an oil pan brace too.

Really excited with how this build is going :nod:
