I want to buy or build an adapter to mount my Renesis to a conventional
engine stand.  Where on the engine should the adapter mount?  I don't want
to take a chance on breaking out the bosses.  I was thinking that the
motor
mount bosses might be ok, but I saw where several were for sale that
mounted
on the AC mount bosses.

Also, what should be the min thickness of the plate?  All I have is a
vice,
torch, and hammer so I want the plate the minimum thickness to do the job.

Additionaly, can I use the stock ignition coils with Tracy's EC2 or will I
have to buy the LS1 coils?

And, Will the stock Renesis Flexplate work with Tracy's RD-1C drive? Or
will
I have to locate one from a 2nd gen?

Stock coils OK.

Have to locate 2nd gen plate.

Need Renesis balance weight. Yes.

Red and yellow injectors as secondary. Yellow primary.

The balance weight is not attached to the flexplate?

Which are the primary and which are the secondary on the intake?

I suppose that if I change the flexplate, I will also have to change the
starter?

Bill

My guess is the auto TX RX8 engine counter weight is a seperate part from
the flex plate. I could be wrong.

The two holes in the center housing are the primary intake.

No on the starter. It should be the same part.

Paul, Don't  I remember you saying something to the effect, "These red ones
are useless for our purposes."  after doing injector testing?  If this is
true, what should we be changing to?  Is a change just a matter of remove,
replace?

Bill Bradburry

Probably for a p-port. Depends on the manifold. Might be OK for
a 200 HP RX8 engine.
