Bill, Apparently it was Cammit who produce the Jab Engines. Much official
grief here lately with the engines, but the cures appeared to be there.
Perhaps they could not wait that long for the turnaround. As usual rumours
that the engines will be made in China!!! That will be interesting. Really no
one knows, but the door is now either closed or open depending on who you are.
It is open for an alternative engine. Neil

Kelly, Have yet to discuss fully with Randy. Have just returned from the
Aussie Oz-kosh where the interest is in rotary engines provided that they can
buy a ready to bolt on engine. This was not altogether surprising. Then the
day after Oz-kosh the engine manufacturer for a very popular AC engine went
into receivership leaving an enormous gap. This begs to be filled by a single
rotor up to 130 HP!! A lot of planning to be done and the grief and
frustration that entails. At the end it is one step at a time. I have to
finalise the PSRU design. Then we can look further.
Randy is a very competent =machinist so I assume that he will adopt the
threaded system, but really that is up to him. WE talk often but yet to agree
on plans.
Cheers Neil.

Hi mate
Yes must say I'm very happy with the way it runs, and simple to
manufacture intake etc
Mine is like Neil's very neat systems and no leaks to date.
I have no need for turbo on my install in the rv7 .
Cooling and all is just where I want it after many attempts
Love these engines they are so tolerant of issues.
Cheers

Christian,
That’s great news. I didn’t realize anyone had that may p-port hours.
Same question I asked Neil. How are your intake tubes attached to the rotor
housing.
