Good point. I imagine you could use the ceramic apex seals, but their cost would make the whole thing more expensive than I would probably want to go. Do you think having the seals coated with a ceramic might work/stay on?

One of the best ways to strip the dirty oil and grime off an engine is with steam cleaning. That steam is some highly corrosive stuff. A coating of ceramic would save the face of the rotors from being eroded away real fast, but what could you do to get some oil out to the apex seals. -- Homepage: http://www.flyrotary.com/ Archive and UnSub: http://mail.lancaironline.net:81/lists/flyrotary/List.html Notice: This e-mail is intended solely for use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is proprietary, privileged, company confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
