Just some pics of the motor preassembled. Everything is torqued down.
I'm going to safety wire everything. As you can see the tension bolts
where drilled as well. I have new titanium studs but I'm not sure if
I'm going to use them or not. I want to run it on the stand for a bit
and get it tuned before I start changing tension bolts.
Tony
Looks nice. Are you sure you have your safety wires right ?
John
Sorry, as I read on further I noticed someone else had mentioned your wire
orientation already. I get so excited when I see something like that and I
have to pipe up right away. I usually feel like a kid amongst his betters
and elders listening in on lofty discussions. Of course I am likely to
learn
something listening to the intellectual giants on this list. Again that
engine looks great.

Hi Paul,
I'm now back in Japan after a very rewarding trip to collect parts and ideas
for my SeaWind. These included the remote water pump from you, a used Bell
47 final 3:1 drive unit, and a pile of JB Weld. No pictures of Tony's
engine arrive in my mail box. Could you resend them to me please.
Thanks
Doug
It is probably because the NSA monitors my email and their
computers are bogged down :) If it is something they don't
understand they some times take hours to forward the email.
Somebody there is getting a real education on rotary
engines. Keep up the good work whoever you are and
buy an RX8 with all that money we are paying you.
Paul Lamar ...No rotor no motor.
Paul,
Nope , No joy. My mail box is empty but only 4 Xs came through indicating
failed pictures. Are they JPEGS? This has happened a several times this
year. N.S.A. or Home Security wouldn't be interested in rotary engines
since they aren't exactly classified material. They may be interested, in a
American pilot with a counter culture last pen name though. Especially now
that I have in my possession six ounces of top secret James Bond Weld:)
Doug
I don't know. I think Tony is using one of those non standard
computers like a Mac or something weird like that :)

Thanks for doing that. I got them. Tony, Great detailing. I can't wait to
show them to my Japanese mechanic friend. He will be impressed.
