Paul,   looking at  your drawings  posted on the web page, there is
one proposal for installing the  PP intake manifold with high temp
epoxy.  This seems a little scary to me being only inches away from
the exhaust port.   Looking at the Power Sport photos, it looks  like
they have drilled and tapped the rotor housing.   What is typically
done in racing cars?    I would appreciate your comments on the best
way to do this.    I have two old housings to practice on before the
real thing.    Jerry

Naw the epoxy works fine. Jim Mederer uses it in his 900 HP turbo three
rotor. The mixture keeps that part of the engine cool.
The screws don't hurt however.
