Andrew,
other than spelling your name wrong Andrew Darris or something and
calling the engine a CA18T and not DET in the text it came out pretty
good. Lots of tech info and nice pictures which is what you want.
Guess you wont be using used flywheel bolts again! What did it cost for
the solid flywheel and dowling?
Will be interesting to see what the extractors gain, any improvments
with the adjustable vernier cam gears?
A friend keeps talking about a cheap project car 1600or1200 and I'm
trying to convince him to do a CA18DET if my prototype non-Wankel Rotary
engine doesnt work out :)
