Getting tech'd with everyone at "tech day" is always tough, even if the car's 100%. You guys get dinged on anything major, or is it all going according to plan?

Here’s the car getting prepped for paint.
Upper Intake manifold paint drying up.
Got the Rotary attack space ships ready. I love that shirt.
I stopped by Clutch Net to pick up my custom clutch.
Mazda pressure plate Toyota four puck disc.
Oleg the owner gave me the approval for a few pictures of work in progress.
These discs are waiting for the centers to be installed.
Here’s Oleg hard at work. Almost every thing is made in house.
There’s a lot more machines like this in the next room.

I need more info on that oil pedestal, please. I searched on rotary-works.com, but I couldn't find it. More pics of just the part and price would be greatly appreciated.
Also, what are the IDs of the water pump adapter inlet and outlet?
Thanks. Keep up the great work.

Old brakes out
EBC in
Custom transmission mount.
Solid motor mounts. Still need to be braced.
Time to get it all in
got all my hoses and pressure lines made at VF Sales.
26 feet of braided -10
20 feet of -8
and lots of other stuff. $250.
That’s a good deal.
This is no fun
Formula D requires a fire suppressant system now.
