What about the new 2mm apex seals that Tracy demonstrated against the

We'll be building two engines using Tracy's new 2-piece 2mm apex seals
and springs pretty soon.  Both of them will be in a high powered environment
so I'll
be anxious to see how they perform.  I expect good things from them.  One of
our friends
in Canada is using his stuff and, although he's satisfied, he's told me that
they had an
extensively long break-in period of 1800 miles (automotive miles, that is).
I'm assuming
the engine in question is using re-used rotor housings as well so that may
be part of the reason behind it.
