Coming together now

Sanded the whole engine bay, removed all the seam sealer.

Primer!

Gotta have my signature GREEEN!!

Bet you guys didnt think this was possible based off the beginning huh? I'm not a professional painter, but many guys who have stopped by think I am

This one goes to Matt, he came up with using a motor plate idea. I liked it, and started to fabricate using the dummy engine. This made the whole package so easy to install and remove

Now onto the 4-rotor! After all that is what everyone wants to see. 1st off the aluminum side housings. So light, so nice.

The ultra-light rotors

P-port all epoxy sealed

GtoRx7 · 06-09-2013, 08:55 PM

All the new seals. Too much time in clearancing side seals. I always dread it

The ultra ultra lightweight clutch and flywheel. 4.5lb flywheel and 9lb clutch. Alcon makes one sexy setup

[b] The IV-rotor housings next to the workhorse 3-rotor semi p-port housings.

And of course, the triple spark plugs.

Some of the machine work for the center stationary gears

I wanted to save weight everywhere possible, and also make our 4-rotor look more "factory produced". So I shaved the center irons, which took some time to do.

As stated earlier, there are SO many things inside the engine that I cant photograph unfortunately. The intake ports, the exhaust ports, internal cooling methods. All this made taking engine assembly pics impossible. Sorry guys! Here she is all finished and assembled.

I made a fast custom engine stand to assemble the beast. Took a minute to think of a good way to do it.

The drysump plate all bolted on and ready to scavenge some serious oil

GtoRx7 · 06-09-2013, 09:02 PM

Temporary waterpump installed, front drysump pulley, custom trigger wheel for the electromotive

Think that is enough mag sensors? lol

Coil mount finished (12 coils..... whew) And the slide throttle fully machined and finished. The slider is out, while I fabricated the intake manifold.

Does this look like a machine or what?? The R26b would be proud. Notice the very straight shot intake manifold. This was the reason for all that chassis modification.

Wanted a nice lightweight alternator relocation bracket, so designed this one. All cnc of course. The aluminum front irons do not have any bolt provisions, so mounting brackets are little more difficult.
