Started in august '11, have been working on it every now and then.. Probably around 150 hours.. Not much material cost yet but it will build up pretty fast im afraid :nod:

Amazing work. Are you going to be balancing the rotating assembly yourself?

Don't be afraid to go a little deeper with the port phasing, many I've seen go nearly right to the bathtub and sideseal! Might help encourage early-opening flow...

Thanks! Ive seen those rotors also but this version is a little bit moderate, i would get better flow if i went bigger though... This type of modification will open ports 30 degrees earlier..

I wont balance them my self, dont have the equipment unfortunately.

i found a beefier tranny... this one is 200mm shorter than the rx7, a better fit since i need to put the engine further back
