The single rotor engine is finally running again. Dynamically balanced
and a new ignition system helped a lot.

I now will have to put all my efforts into putting the flyable engine
together.

Can you give us a current configuration list?  What have you

changed and

where did the parts come from?

Keith Wood

Keith,

the intake is PP, and the side housings are Al with a cast iron insert.
Detailed pictures are on the rotaryeng website. The redrive is a Hirth
G40
with 3.33:1 ratio. Carburetor is Mikuni 36mm, for now. Ignition is a MSD
CDI with a dual coil.

All non-Mazda parts are of my own design and make.

Richard,
Aim for a 44mm inlet and manifold.
George ( down under)

Too small. The Le mans engine had 51 MM and a slide throttle.

Paul Lamar

George,

if your are talking about the 13B, I agree with Paul. I think I will go
considerably over 50mm, or equivalent cross section.
This issue will not come up for me any time soon.

N2071U


ps: Paul, sorry for that. I just recovered from a powersupply failure.

No problem Richard.--
