Ok.
Im still recovering from mono/ car accident so progress has been very slow. But I am getting energy back and everything seems to be going smoothly. Only missing a handfull of parts (fuel line, block off plates, dual alt belt pully).

Today I setup the engine to be installed in the car.




:-D

 

Hey looks great. Did you clean up that UIM? Looks super clean...

 

How much dose a 3 rotor Engine cost to buy?

 

man 20B swaps make me jealous but it's sweet how much potential they have.. good luck man!

oh yea can we get some pics of the car it'll be powering?

 

Buying, or installing and making useable, are two VERY different prices.

that's beautiful, it brings a tear to my eye

 

Sorry, dont have pictures of the microtech install, camera batteries died.

 

Damn Spider, good luck, that intercooler seems a little over kill with the stock twins though.

 

20B about 2.5K from me ( 6mo warranty )

 

Just info couldn't get to your website. Got this message "Directory Listing Denied"

 

Wow, the ultimate rotary, behold the 20b. Man I'd love to get my hands on one, or just an eshaft so I could make my own.

 

Relocated red top optima.

Where the microtech lives...

Radiator, oil cooler, and intercooler mounted and ready to test!


Im working on the piping, wiring, and fuel system tommorow.

 

Hey what IC did you get? tight fit but that is huge!

 

its a 150$ ebay special ive seen the car in person its crazy and i wanted to kill him when i walked into his garage and there was another cosmo half cut sitting there.

 

That IC is huge! Do you think airflow will be an issue since its blocking over 50% of the radiator? I am so jealous I always wanted to do this swap. Looks like fun.

 

I beleave he is putting an efan on the radiator.Btw joe do you still have a 7?

 

Not on the passenger side?

Better weight distribution being on the opposite side as the driver

 

He has a dual battery setup, both bins are filled. Or at least that what he told me.

 

Oh, he didn't mention it so I had no clue.

Damn dual batteries? What's the need for that heh. System I'm assuming?

 

Hahaha.
Proper ducting will help with any air flow problems, plus I am using a high flow fan.

Got the main harness done .

 

marc....come up in a few weeks and help me with my motor..ill pay yays.

 

looking good!

 

Chris its easy as 123, I did mine practically by myself * my wife operating the engine hoist. Oh, I have not bought a FD yet! In time

Marc I was inquiring about the airflow. When I was in Okinawa, Japan a guy that worked with my dad had a similar set up as you had airflow issues due to the size of the IC. Like you said with proper ducting I guess it could be OK. Good luck with your project. I would love to see it when it's completed. By the way I am the guy you met when you were picking up Blake's TII shell in Portland. Oh, did you ever pick up that black interior @ the junkyard in Battleground?

 

this makes me want to get a loan buy an engine and rip my car apart. looks waay nice though, i am very envious of you.

 

wow, thats ******* awesome, im really jealous just like everyone else.

what mods did you do to get the engine in there? motor mounts etc.
