Jarrett,
Will be a good idea to scan both the Mistral and Renesis housings.............You really need
a 93-95 13BREW (preferably) or Cosmo 20B front housing to scan.............Most of my 13B
engines are 86-91.............My Cosmo 13B is adaptable but lacks some of the machined bolt
and stud pads of the 13BREW, Renesis or Cosmo 20B front side housing which you need
to make allowances for on the redesigned back-plate if you want it to fit all three versions of
these engines..................Throw this out to the group and see if someone has a 1993-95
13BREW front side hsg (need not be usable) they would donate or lend to the project.........
You really need this front side housing in front of you......... Even with all the scans nothing
beats having the actual hardware............IMHO
Best Regards,
Kelly Troyer

Evening Kelly, so just thought I'd send a note w/ an update. I did find a fella in Tulsa who has access to a laser scanner. He's getting me some pricing
on what it would cost to get the job done. I'm thinking it might be a good idea to get both the Mistral housing as well as a Renisis Front Cover scanned?
I'd like to get an Iron [preferably the side that mates to the front cover] scanned as well but don't know if you've got one handy [as in, not 'in' an engine]. I could always
do it here in time but that might take a bit before I get my hands on one that is not in an engine.
I'll keep you posted as this goes and see where we get.
