Paul,
As I mentioned earlier, I will be needing a 3R flange.  Are there others
out
there  too?  Now's the time to speak up guys!  To what address should I send
the
flange template?
Mark

P.S.  Bob, how about it?


OK guys but you are going to have to finance them being made.
I will front the money for twenty or so two rotors flanges but
I think there will not be enough orders for three rotor
versions.

I will take the template over there and get a quote.
The guy I have choose  to do it is;

Robert Monetti at Hydro Jet
2635 Lavey Ct. Suite 1
Newbury Park CA 91320

phone 805 375 7099
fax   805 375 1029
cell  805 509 4532

Paul,
I looking for 3R flange. Which type of material are you using?
I would be interested to have one and another for friend
of mine Rob (N115XL - Velocity XL RG, NA 20B). How much?
Delivery time?

3/8" thick  6061 T6 plate is weldable and relatively low cost.
Don't know the cost yet. It will be awhile as I am waiting on
some loaner manifolds or templates.

Here is a drawing of a two rotor six port engine Mike Wills
sent me. Please make a template out of this and check it on your
six port engines. I don't want to make a bunch and not have them fit.

Paul,
To continue flange topic, please look on this picture.
Do you have any comments on this 20B intake flange
configuration. All is standard for 3R or something
is different? Do you have drawings for this
flange? If so please share with me. Thanks!

No drawings Vlad. If you make a template out of 1/8 inch thick 
transparent Lexan obtainable at the hardware store and send it 
to me I will make a drawing. Rout out the intake ports in the
Lexan with a router and a flush laminate trim bit. Mark and drill 
all the mounting holes and make sure the template will bolt to 
the engine.

The end housing ports look much larger than a four port 13B of
around 1988 vintage. The center housinbg ports look about the same as
a 13B center housing ports.
