Perhaps, does smb have some information about e-shaft inspection. RX-8

I didn't find exact size of e-shaft.

Rx8 crank has 4 lightening holes in each rotor journal, all earlier cranks have 3. Other than that, basically the same as an FD crank, aside from a little extra bearing clearance.

Spark plug heat range was too hot, and/or water cooling system wasn't up to the job.
