Engine builder

[frenchy]

Any experiences good/bad, opinions, recommendations regarding an engine builder here in sa guys?

[project2]

I'm having a motor built by Jeremy lake, I've seen other motors he's built go 400 kw at the rears with no problems, so that's why I chose him. Mine is a rx4 bridgeport engine.

never heard of jeremy lake.. who does he work for?

[Kendo]

jeremy lake is from the old school.

do mildrens even work on rotaries anymore or just do gas conversions :S

I've heard both good and bad from both revs and mildrens. I know mildrens only have one rotor head left. I know a few people who send their motors interstate to get them done.

Jeremy is from the old school, he builds out of his private workshop now. As a side business to his day job. He's still got his head about rotaries, and like I said, I've seen them pushed to the limits without failure. I got onto him through alex at injectmaz. He's pulled my motor down and gave me a list of parts required, and I'm about to send it all in so he can start the build. The whole rotating assembly is sent to Sydney to be balanced first. Can't wait to get it in the coupe.

sounds good, so workshops dont balance rotating assembly here?

[project2]

Not for rotaries as far as I know. The only place I know of is GAS Motorsport in Sydney. It's only $350, so why not. Whatever makes it spin over nicely.

Extream Rotary's in Melbourne do it and do it well (check out http://xtremerotaries.com/index.php or the online shop at rotaryonline.com )

Maybe that's who GAS use? My memory might fail me. It was a while ago I spoke to him. I just know I want it balanced!

[Triangle Going Sick]

You try Shaun (Boost Worx)?

[frenchy]

he is the other option, i was just testing the waters..

balancing is the go! will have to look into that

thanks

[Triangle Going Sick]

Ahhh thought maybe you tried him and he said he didn't do them anymore LOL.

Extreme rotaries did the balancing and clearancing on mine as well.

[frenchy]

nah not yet, but i think i have finally decided on going n/a ...
so im looking for a pair of mint n/a rotors now
then i can source appropriate counterweights, and start looking at getting it built
