Both rotor housings had coolant inside the
combustion
chambers but I'm not sure why as the intake and exhaust (the heavy
oem
one) manifolds were on.
You're welcome
Jeff. Are you sure it was coolant? Maybe red coolant (propylene
glycol)? Sometimes apex seals get stuck with the engine sits for a while,
and there are various fixes that include pouring something (usually automatic
trans fluid) in the housings to let the seals soak. I've never heard of
anyone using coolant for this, but you never know.
Bruce Turrentine tried REAL hard to get me
to use 9.4 rotors, rather than insisting on 9.7's. Most everyone on this
side of the ocean things there wouldn't be much difference, but Leon says it
does make a significant difference. Even with those odds, it's hard to bet
against Leon. Figure you might lose 5-10 HP as a wild guess. You can
make it up with good porting.
Good
luck,
Rusty (have I
mentioned recently that I hate fiberglass)
