Yesterday I got some mandrels from www.mandrel-bends.com for the intake-
2" 16GA with tight CLR.
Today I did the V-band-flanges for the runners. With a groove to stay concentric and also a little groove on the other side to fix the pipe in. Only 2mm deep, but tight, so it holds there when trying out the parts. Easier to weld also.

hi with the rotating assembly do you plan on having a heavy weight flywheel or light . just curious on the torque transfeer. without a turbo how much power do you expect? much respect for your project, cheers

Re: 4 Rotor Build in Sweden
 
I don't know really. First I thought I go with a lighter, but as my clutch is a 3-disc Titlon 184mm, I Think I go with a little more "normal" weight.

Long time no see, have done some small updates now and then on both Facebook and Instagram. I'm sorry, but it's so easy to throw in a picture and move on.
Lets do a throwback sunday.
I did a little test with my front fender. My wheels are to big, and the body is so much lower that I can't mount the fenders over the wheels today.
I let it sit there and sink in. The rear wheelarc will be a big challenge as well..

https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
Then I moved on with the watt-link. Did some sheetmetal-parts in Solidworks.

A friend of mine helped me with the lasercut and bending. Will be nice!

Back to the 4-rotor...
I havn't done much, but some small thing here and there.
Have done the first part of my new centerbearings.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
The toleranses are tight! Need to demount to get all oil-windows in place.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
Have also prepared the irons.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
Then I went through my rotors, and picked out these four. Close call without any mods yet. Only 20grams away.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
After some ultrasonicwashing. This is the rotor on the far left on the picture above.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
After a few seconds with a scotchbritepad by hand.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
Have bought two AutoVerdi-drysump-pumps.
One will GusFD3s use on his Rx3-20B, and the other will I keep.
https://i815.photobucket.com/albums/...psyjgyidem.jpg
Sketched up the pump to get it into my assemblies in Solidworks
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
Started on the drysumppan and front cover that will be some billet-kind.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
Havn't desided if the pan will be billet or sheetmetal, the sheetmetal have some advantage, but billet is engine-porn :-)
Did a test with wellpapp of the sheetmetal-version.
Very tight and small, easy to fit AN-12 into.
https://www.nopistons.com/attachment...ine=1417346804
So, not much has happened, but still going in the right direction.
Can remind you of the facebook-page and instagram if you want instant updates without text :-)
But I'm trying to get better on updates here as well.
