I plan on fabing some flat sheets of carbon or aluminum (painted black) to fill in the rest of the space and hide the gas tank

Guys I know we are not supposed to talk about it, so lets just say I need help finding a "hook up" for some paper work to get my car on the road. All my usual guys have let me down. I used to help out other people with this problem and now I need help. PM me if you know anything. Thanks.

Yeah it has long tubes, a cam and no cats. Also all the emissions equipment from the vette have been taken off. It would take a lot of time and money to get it bar'd. Maybe one day but I live in a no smog county. Once its in your name you never have to smog it again.

Gotta deploy to make that paper man! Haven't spent much on the FD on this trip...Just a new clutch...

Benny:

Alls good brother, I spoke to Juan a few weeks back, apparently he found that hood scoop thing for his ride in Japan and they're gonna be shipping it to my place. He's gonna save a ton on shipping costs. Oh, Benny got some good news! Finally got the thumbs up for the 3 rotor from the wifey...Get ready ****...I'll have one by June, and expect it at your door (disassembled of course) no later than July-ish... Here's a pic if you guys haven't seen her lately!

Looks good. You need one of those half plates that says RX7 for the front bumper.

sounds good, that will make two 3 rotor builds for this coming year.

i'll be posting pics to my albums in the next few days of Juan's newest project build(since his car isn't such a secret anymore), making the engine a bit more reliable for 500+WHP figures. lapping, pinning, clearancing the rotors for 9k+RPMs, FD/S5 TII hybrid tranny, GT35R, still deciding on using my new racing water seals and coolant seal savers since i haven't had a chance to test them but they are rated more durable than the OEM's. they'll be available soon after a bit of testing and after i app for vendorship.

glad to hear you're still doing fine over there.

anyone who's interested in the seals and coolant seal savers, i'm still in the process of producing the first batch. the coolant seal savers are a new product that hasn't been put out on the market and is something i have been developing. the racing coolant seals are rated up to 400*F and reusable like the pineapple racing ones and i'll be listing them at a fraction of the cost of the pineapple ones. first test will be testing the exact melting point of OE coolant seals and these ones to get a more exact comparison.

you know i'm pretty thorough and my ideas always come up with a workable product. i wouldn't waste my money on the vendorship if i didn't think it was worth it in a way to affect the longevity of all of these motors. they'll be about as cheap as i can afford to produce them, unlike some companies who capitalize on the monopoly that is the rotary engine.
