Hi Paul,
I just finished installing the Renesis wp on my 20B. It turned out to be
much more work that I had planned, but the end result was worth it. Of the
things that had to be changed were, 1) replace mounting studs with longer
studs (McMaster), 2) change main hub and pulleys, 3) change alternator
pulleys, 4) replace deep-v belts with multi-v belts, 5) relocate CAS sensor
(new bracket) due to different location of CAS timing wheel, 6) install your
Renesis WP adapter, 7) re-plumb lines, 8) modify Renesis crank hub to work
on 20b, 9) fabricate .040" spacer to get Renesis hub to fit properly.
So, this "minor mod" turned into a major deal in short order. But now that
its done, I'm happy to know that I have shed 6-7# in the process. And I can
get a replacement cartridge at any major parts house or Mazda dealership.

Nice work Mark. I see you put our old wiggins couplings on the
water block. The lower hole in the water block was intended
to take a flush pipe plug so the slide throttle could
be a bit closer to the engine. Did you have to move the slide
throttle out? For the new people doing the same thing Jeff
has a few of these water blocks made.
