Not yet as they will be done in england. The engine builder has his own way of making the ports. So he will do all the porting.

Will be a month or so untill the PP ports are done. The parts wont be in england untill after new year. But while they are beeing milled and ported and setup we will order the remaining parts needed for the engine.

Thank,s for the info will be patient and see what the porting is like ML Wankeltrim is gonna dyno test our RX-4 drag car with a third far trailing spark plug on New years day Hope to see some good numbers and verify how much the third spark plug will do on our 13B PP motor

Very beautiful! I hope you post pictures of the p-ports, I would like to see the timing you're running. I have a specific question though. What material did you use to fill in the intake ports? Not that I'm building a p-port motor myself soon...

It won't be fired up before march/april. As the engine will be built in england and im in norway. So im taking the car over to england as soon as everything is ready to be put into the car. Once i go over im guessing it will take about 2 weeks of work to get everything setup and get it running and dynoed.

hehe vell it's getting tight now so to speak. When i started the project the financial crisis had not set in hard yet. And the norwegian krone was still quite strong. Now it's lost about 30% to the USD since then. So everything i need to buy from the us has gone up alot.

And that has made a big dent in my budget. But it's going to go

Thanks

All the parts are now on there way from New Zealand finaly, about 1 month late or so

They will arrive in england next week, and the rotor housings will go straight out for PP ports to be made and then get ported. Then the engine will be ready to be put together. So i guess within a month or so the shortblock will be put together with drysump system.

We are still pondering abit about how to make the intake and stuff like that.
