Dont know a thing about rotarys. This video does an amazing job building and showing how complex/ simple these little motors are!! 10/10 great freaking job man!!!

Would you recommend always putting Vaseline on your shaft before you put it in the hole ? Ha ha ha great video Thanks very much

I’ve never been into rotaries until my brother bought a FC3S. Now i’m obsessed and love them! Still don’t know everything about them but i’m continuing to learn! Loved this vid.

Having been a Machinist since 1970: 1) your running that reamer 1.5-2 times as fast as it should for that operation. 2) Never ream without either water based or oil based lubricant if you want a true sized hole. Less lube needed with a carbide reamer, but still needed. You probably should have put that bench-top vertical mill in back gear for reaming to slow it down, remember to reverse directions while in back gear.

Thank you for Tip . I am cnc Machinist I love advice🙏🔥

My son has RX-8 and we watch your videos all the time. The knowledge you share with people unbelievable my son and I truly appreciate it. Thanks

I’m a third generation holden mechanic by trade, and I’ve never been into rotaries until now, but I’m thinking I wanna build one.

Well done Broomy. Awesome build mate.

I love when people share their skills. Much appreciated man 👍. I'd totally have u work on my engine, but I'm in the states 😡

Great vid. The details make all the difference.

That’s a really good and easy to follow video, guys!

This is a fantastic video. Awesome build.

Wow amazing stuff, thanks for the video!👌

Good job guys. I'm not a Rotor guy, but it was interesting to see how it all works.

Thanks for this! I would never attempt it myself but it's good to see that there are still people who can... excellent work!

what a beautiful process

Fantastic video

this really help with little tips and tricks 👍

i really love and obsessed with rotary even i don't have any rotary on my own, and i'm zero about how its work and assemble before. this is amazing video, it make more obsesses with it. feel like want to be your guys to learn and work on it. it my dream to work on rotary. full respect from me in malaysia.

Thank you very much for the build video I have rebuilt many piston engines never a rotary one but now I have a RX8 I am going to have a go at one got the manual got the engine its have a go time Thanks again Kevin from the UK

Awesome tutorial! Thank you

Nice & clean job

Nice work.

nice one Broomy !

Awesome vid mate... with my limited knowledge of the rotary If I had the time, money and facilities I would have a crack at a a rebuild... excellent video mate well done 🤙🤙🤙🍻

very well done

Hey guys. I am a Toolmaker and I do lots of those type of machining. I see when you tap and ream you use slow movements to not over heat your tool which is right, but may I suggest you use tapping paste when you use reamers and taps and dies. It will totally help with the overheating and helps you not to seize your tool or minimize the risk of breaking the tool in the job. Love your video’s keep it up

It'd be great to see how you do the diy stud kit machining process, the m10 threaded stud heads are genius. Getting cnc studs done costs about half as much as a decent china milling machine. There's a thread on Aus rotary about using the centre plate as the template for the rest of the holes but the housings seem to be the hard part due to misalignment of bolt holes. Do u just drill through the centre plate into the housings, not worry about the drill bit walking and let the reamer take care of truing it up?

awsome video!!!!!!!!

Nice,👍

Hello sir, i'm enjoying your videos a lot. I'm curious as how the rotor housing gets resurfaced or honed, well because surely the equipment for honing piston engines cylinder won't do.

E&j stuff that my buddy

Did you guys balance the rotors/rotating assembly after the clearincing proces? If not whats the rpm limit of this setup?

I'm surprised you don't machine the combustion faces of the rotors, you would be surprised just how different each combustion chamber is from factory. Also do you ever bother to check the apex springs for resistance, there are many times you will find a certain apex spring is slack/lacks resistance. Just a few tips..👍👍

I have a question why did you have like a. Nudge in the housing for the bridge port ?

They say a rotary has only 3 moving parts, well all those seals are moving! And there is a lot of them.

I've always been told never use vaseline on rubber o-rings because it's petroleum based and slowly eats rubber. Your seals probably aren't rubber though, eh? Thanks for the vid, I've got a semi-pp (built by someone else). Not planning on building a motor anytime soon... but I've got your vid bookmarked just in case. :)

Nice video, learned alot. Any way you can do a 20b one day

We will be doing one shortly.

Where do you buy those studs? Or is there another company making them like that? I cant find these on Power seals site.

Hay

For more Rotary news search "Hemi Rotary" in You Tube for a different "spin" on the ignition pocket.

You might find it a bit uncomfortable but it is best to keep your party pack chilled. All right now seriously you are pulling the case studs up tighter than 48 pound feet/65nm, you did say that you were tightening up to 1/2" unf? I would also suggest you invest in a center finder or a clock to clock the counter bores of the end iron. A whole lot easier and more accurate.

Can you send me the link for the tdc check fixture

Just want to ask why did you go over to fueltech management.. from the microtech??

How much material did you remove from the sides of the rotar's

would a lighter rotor increase the performace?

Fuk yeah

A Peripheral/bridge port engine??

Internal and external micrometer

Friction systems should be dealt with in the engine housings... of its pressure, timing, and containment of the combustion system.. and not on the rotary. Swing, spring, pressure, and timing to contain the forces and energy within the engine housing... which will relieve the pressure that friction is giving on the rotary...

I didn't see how to put the smaller apex spring in.

Is the same process done in 20b just extra rod and plate?

You can also just use an old water seal doubled up and slipped around the rotor to keep the apex seals in place. 👍

3:24 I am not even a mechanic but shouldn't a higher clearance mean less oil pressure?

@TykeMison_

4 жыл бұрын

It depends entirely on the design goal for the motor and the part choice. Pretend I want to use straight 30 weight instead of a 5-30, and I use a stronger oil pump (more liters or gallons per minute flow rate) to handle the stress of racing. Using arbitrary numbers: The stock motor has 45PSI on 5 thousandths clearance but I am getting 70 PSI at 5 thousandths with the race-ready upgrade. Because the oil pump can flow more liquid, and the oil is a thicker kind, the pressure is going to increase beyond what the motor was designed for. I may need to increase clearance to 8 thousandths to get oil pressure to the right level. Conversely on a very badly worn out motor the clearances may have increased from 3 to 8 thousandths, and I may want to use a step heavier oil to have oil PSI in spec. It's all relative to how the engine was meant to run and the changes you make to it.

Yes but bigger clearances mean more flow better cooling. So you run high oil pressure regulator to make up the pressure at race rpms

Amazing ..... Would you do an experiment like in this picture for your next project? 8ttps://images4.imagebam.com/9e/b1/2e/MEKFJ3L_o.jpg I have a heated debated with my friend, he said without "Gear", the rotor will wobble randomly and erraticly. I think No, because the rotor is holding by its housing or casing and eccentric shaft firmly/tightly. I can't prove it, but logically my idea is right, isn't it? So if you interested in this concept, I would be very appreciate. Have a nice day CU
