I was wondering if anyone picked up on that.
I received more pictures from Mandeville today.
Here is a shot of the rotating assembly being dynamically balanced:

As those of you that have been following my 20b oil pan thread already know, we decided to shorten the height of the oil pan so the engine can be mounted lower in the chassis. I am going to make up for the loss of capacity with the oil cooler/filter assembly.

[quote name='93FDGT3540' date='Jul 29 2005, 04:09 PM']Congrats so far on the project, it looks like its in the right hands.

Thanks Mike. Hopefully all the bad luck you had was removed when I stripped all the parts off the chassis. The way I see it is, after going through five 2 rotor engines in less than 2 years the chassis owes us one
The motor is finished and arrived yesterday . . .along with the bill . I am extremely happy with Mandeville's work and service. He is by far the most professional engine builder I have dealt with. Throughout the process he took the time to keep me updated on his progress. The invoice I received from him would make an accountant proud; he detailed the cost of parts and labor for each aspect of the buildup. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again.
The chassis has been transported to the fabricator and he is planning on starting in on it today .
