after Kevin (Rotary Resurrection) took it apart for me we found aout 7 (3mm solid corner seals) completely broken and out of the 6 apex seals 1 did survive so i have trashed both rotors and both housings! YAY! :(

Well off to work i go now to keep the rotary dream alive...

the blue hose? i run 5/8th oil line for heater hose (as it can handle high temps and is flame retardent)

OOOO lol i see it i started to powdercoat the housing and stopped halfway threw thinking that it would warp the housing.. so it bubbled up =/
