Thats a good achievement but you sound like you are proud kwanz. ?? biggrin.gif

The 13B's are nice.. An old friend of mine had a couple of old Rx7's with 13b's. He also had a 7 with a 20B turbo monster ported.... that thing was mad. Also a friend has a AE86 with exhaust/intake/mild internals & new ecu/management system. Those little things fly biggrin.gif

I'm proud of every other engine aside from the 13Bs. Both were relatively recent rebuilds and both had seals that failed. I though long about keeping the FC and doing a 3 rotor or even 4 rotor build... but then I started racing my Celica and noticed my solo times weren't all that different between the two... so I just concentrated on my race Celica at the time (not this current one)... unfortunately, the Celica's motor, after it's modifications became an intereference motor and blew up after a a couple of combined mishaps. Engines themselves, are pretty tough when taken care of...
