Rusty, here is the link to Racing Beat
housings:
Hi
Ben,
Unfortunately, the Racing Beat catalog has listed these
housings for literally years, and they've had the rear, and intermediate
housings available. As of the first of this year, the front housing was
still not available. It's been two months from being ready for at least
the past two years. It is possible that they finally
finished it, but I remain skeptical. I also wonder if the Renesis
engine will be the beginning of the end for these housings, since they won't
work with Renesis rotor housings.
A few other
details about these aluminum housings- You are correct that
the inlet ports are cast into the housing, but not cut through on the rotor
side. That makes them perfect for PP engines right out of the
box. They can cut cut any side port you want, within limits of the
casting, pretty much like a stock housing. Considering the price of
these housings, I'd certainly have them do the porting, since I
couldn't stand messing one up.
The inlet
ports that are cast into the housings match the REW intake manifold
pattern, so 3rd gen intake would fit.
The rear
housing does NOT have a provision for the main oil pressure regulator, so you
have to provide some other means of regulating pressure. This isn't
difficult, just something to be aware of.
Cheers,
Rusty (gotta
go rescue my pump from the post office)
