It would seem that entire water jacket area would have to bee filled in on all the plates.

How does that stop the coolant from seeping in? Each coolant passage isnt sealed independently.



I think its a pretty cool port minus the potential sealing issue.

Brown nosing is not the same as giving respect.



Give respect where it is due.



Anyone with experience that is willing to share it with the rest of us should be given the utmost respect!

Maybe I should say I didn't mean anything by that before someone takes offence. My hat's off to Lynn here too, it almost seems wrong to read some of his posts without having to pay for info like that - but I still find it funny to read some of the comments (Lynns included) - maybe it's an American thing?? But lets forget about this and keep it on topic.



BTW touche ronin!

How can you seal it up between the tention bolt holes? RTV?

It seems like coolant would seep into the new runner.




RTV is just fine. There is no water directly involved as the rotor housing is filled with Epoxy before you start.



The port is cut into the runner on the iron and there is no water in the runner face. In some irons there will be gaps where the face of the epoxy will have nothing to seal against, and in those cases a bit of epoxy may be needed on the iron, but this is rare.

Al Gore's Gulfstream 5 burns more fuel in an hour than you and all of your friends do in a week. He sells himself and his friends carbon equivalents from a company he owns. So that they can say we do our part, and you, the bleeting masses, do nothing but consume fuel and generate greenhouse gasses.



When there are no longer cars, there will be Al Gore and his friends, and the world will be safe for Gulfstream 5s.



I hereby grant to you unlimited carbon equivalents to do with as you wish. For true believers, that includes tire smoke and full throttle operation of any combustion engine, if even for personal gratification.



In exchange (as Al would say) instead of collecting money from you, I will just think of some great ideas for saving energy, and saving gullible people from al gore and his friends.
