Chuck, let me know if you're in need of any hard parts.
I may have
some here that you can use for your rebuild or can find
them easily.
Also, great news on the TES oil control ring
o-rings; I've been waiting for a practical, positive
review to come
out.
They
should be fully re-usable.

Do you have a picture of the end plate that got nicked
near the intake

port? I'll tell you if it can be removed from porting work or not.

7/20/03 I emailed Rob Golden at Pineapple Racing a
description of the
failure, no response yet.
I have already repaired the end housing damage, it look OK
to reuse. The
only photo I took was the one previously uploaded,
endhousing_rotor_damage.jpg it shows the damage pretty well.
I have ordered new rotor housing and seals from Mazdatrix,
should arrive
next week.
I have always had a spare motor, I can use a rotor from
that but I would
like to come up with another rotor to keep the spare motor
parts intact.
Brian, can you find a 86 NT rotor for me?
Thanks
