Thumbs up EFI 26B 4 rotor engine project (Here we GO!)
Well its been in the mist of planning since last year 2007. And after my partner and i finished building a sucssesful race car powered by one of CLR Motorsports Elite 13B race set-ups last year. It was contemplated what would be our next step. The idea of building a 20B P-port Motor for the next season crossed our minds but I wanted to take it a step further. After brain storming between Big Al, Carlos Lopez and myself. It was decided that we were gona have to go above and beyond to now build an engine that even the big Heads at Mazda USA will want to inquire about. The engine Project will be headed and put together by Carlos Lopez from CLR Motorsports and Fabrications will be done by Big Al from BMF Racing and last but not least Porting, Funding and the not so clean stuff well be left to me. LOL I will keep pictures of the progress posted as we move on but i can tell you that this will be a long process. i would hope to have this project completed by next year but both time and money will tell the final tale.

Good one! but no April Fools. LOL

as for the shaft... its sold as a kit. you can either get it here from the states. or you can get it directly from Australia. You would have to contact CLR for pricing on that though.

I thought the E6K can run a turbo setup just fine. Am I missing something? Is it because it's a 4 rotor? Can't wait to see the results...
Good luck with the project!
