Aloha from Brasil Paul
I 've just purchased one RX8 engine used on tests, and would like to know if
you can provide or  refer someone to check this engine and prepare it to be
used on an experimental aircraft.
Thanks in advance.
Dr Castro

Remove the schrader valve from an ordinary compression tester
and check for at least three compression pulses in a row in each rotor
as the engine is turned over with the starter.

I have no resources in Brazil. Been there however :)

The engine is in Australia yet.
In Brasil we barely imported a couple of dozen Mazda  RX7s,years ago.
Maybe I will be the first using it on aviation.
My idea was sending the engine direct to US, and only after ready send it
down to Brasil (Already with turbo, PSRU, computer, etc)
Many thanks
Castro

OK you might be able to ship it to Mazdatrix in California if it
is OK with them and have them run it on  a test stand or dyno if you
wish to be sure  everything is working OK.
Then have a freight forwarder pick it up and ship it to Brazil.

I'll will forward this email to Dave Lemon owner of Mazdatrix.
