it should be a 12A, 83-85, it has the original spark plug wires on it, so it can't have more than 150k on it

Now is the perfect time to replace the beehive o rings.

Or remove the beehive :P

Oh, and it's a 12a but I'm late to the party.

Ya I'm late to the party too I'm just now ganna drive a rotary motor for the first time my car is done! Yes rats nest has been removed! I am actually stuck on how to hook up right hoses to the carb... Maybe someone with a detailed pic it will help me a lot ...

What would be better and easyer to use for an oil cooler ? A radiator looking thing or the bee hive? Can I have both?

beehive's EASIER as it's already there. FC OC, or, FB/something similar is better as the amount of heat removal it provides is a lot greater, but more work's involved to install

Stick with the beehive.

StormBeforeDawn

I just finished mounting a radiator style from an FC. It really wasn't that hard piggybacking on the regular radiator mounts.

As for having both? I think you could but it would be pointless and there would be more resistance so the oil pump would have to work harder. No idea if it would be significant. In seriousness the 12a with a beehive is fine, so long as you keep the engine stock-ish.

How does the radiator hoses hook up to the beehive from the body of the SA?



What r the main hoses I need too hook up to get the motor started? And able to drive around.. I have recently hooked up all the rubber hose lines to the carb but the third fuel line I ran idk where it hooks up on the carb so I don't got it hooked up yet. So I need help there ! Imma start it without the vacuum silinoids ! I also don't know where the hose from by the oil stick on block above the oil drainage! Help!
