Rotary Engine Failure due to Side Rotor/Side Rotor Housing Clearance..

[sk8world]

A little of subject here.... But sometimes I wonder if all the changes some builders make cause more harm. No builders specific here I speak of but I have scene many engines fail from some of these mods. From improper ports to adding over sized studs-dowels... I speced my current motor-build but decided not to have the rotors ground as they seemed close enough. I only wish I had did more reasearch on the rotor faces for high HP clearence.

My reason I state this as I have scene many motors on here lately some even stock (ports-everything) making sick power and out lasting some high dollar built ones. Mine was built from used housings and plates, rotors, no laping or grinding, no oil mods, no extra studs or dowels, center section balanced by Luis, all oem parts except ALS seals..making 617rwhp. Have 6500 miles so far and many drag passes. Not sure how long I expect to see it last with running it how I do. I believe having everything right from wiring, tune, fuel system plays a larger roll than some of these special engine mods made.. Just my thought..

Ok back on subject.....
