My word those are some large primary ports!

I like the colour scheme. Nice to see some red on engines once and a while.

I hope you put the dowel o-rings in place on the front rotor housing because they sure dont' show up in the picture.

Today i got a chance to put it together. What a pain in the *** it was to start. I had to run jumper cables from my truck to the car and play with the fuel cut off switch to get it to start. Luckily i had a fuel cut off switch because it helped out alot. Its idleling at about 1800. Barely any smoke. I had to shut it off because it started to leak coolant from the LIM. Im assuming the water jacket O rings are worn so i guess ill have to make a call to mazda trix. It was so nice to hear it on again its been a while. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/6...2a0174a1a9.htm

Looks grand!...I'm planning on powdercoating my irons in a similar red once I finish collecting all of my rebuild parts. Keep us posted on how she runs.

Cool. I like to use it on the legs of the housings too before I sandwich it all together....cuts down on oil "wicking" externally.
