Bobby, 

              The P port I have is threaded into the rotor housing and O ring seal on the inner.  Do not like welding at all, but some seem to be going that way.

The PSRU can be fitted with the 2,85 reduction with minor mods, so not out of the question.

Neil.

Neil,

 

Thanks for the update. Glad to see the P-Port is holding up and gearbox development is showing positive results. Still hoping you will offer a ratio closer to Tracy’s 2.85.  How are your p-port tubes joined to the housing. Welded to the inner lining?

 

Bobby

Bobby,   Version 2 of the PSRU is now finished, only change I am now looking at is in an effort to reduce costs is to replace the bronze bearings with timken tapers.  This will make manufacture reasonably cheaper.   My P port has been running for over 100 hours and has presented no problems to date.  Still testing no 1 PSRU, again no problems other than cost.  Thanks Neil.
