Couldnt sleep so I built a spare motor...
Couldnt sleep so I built a spare motor...
Did this in about 2 hours tonight by myself.
Large/monster street port 13b Turbo.
S4 (86-88) high compression NA rotors.
RA apex seals/ w stock mazda OEM springs
S5 (89-91) hardened stationary gears
Cryro treated bearings.
S6 (93-95) Corner seal springs.
Brand new seals through and through.
Built it out of spare parts I had around the shop. I will drop it in my TII and see how it pulls
. Big port+ NA high compression rotors= more hp.




Soo what do you guys do when you cant sleep?

wow
I would say that was pretty quick! Damn it takes me 4-5 hours just cleaning all the parts. As for checking specs it takes me about an hour. And for checking side seal clearance I'm w/Blake about 2hrs or so. The actual assy takes me about 3-4 hrs and this was after my 4th rebuild. I guess call me slow, maybe I'm just **** when it comes to the build up. I blame the aircraft maintenance side of me.
HI comp turbo rotary engines being junk is a bunch of ricer rotard logic. The only difference between 8.5:1 and 9.4:1 compression ratios is the amount of boost needed to reach a certain chamber pressure at top dead center. The higher the static compression, the less boost needed to lay the smack down on a string of 20 corvettes on a sunny saturday afternoon on a country backroad.

Agreed, it can be done in an hour if all the O rings fit and don't drop out when doing the middle and top iron. Putting on the oil pump with its damn key / keyway always gets me though.
