That's awesome Richard.

 

I only have 1. Right now.

 

Simple... send them to me via PM and I'll, um, proof them. Yeah, that's it, proooooooof them. You can tell Terri it's ok, I'm a trained professional. :D

 

RG, the others tou had count too.
Omicron, I'll show her your post when she comes over.

Now for a fun shot. Why would a perfectly good program do this to an almost finished stator?

 

the finished rotor and stator for the 4 stage Rx 8 compressor.

 

Thats beautiful. I'm getting chills thinking about putting that in my '8 and hearing it scream.

 

You seem to have reversed the direction of rotation. Is this just to make installation on an RX-8 easier?

 

It's due to a little-known principle known as "the perversity of inanimate objects."

 

Geeezzz, I can't get away with anything. The reverse rotation unit is for the Honda. It is the same size as the dash 1 RX unit so I used it for the shot. It was apart and the Mazda unit one is not. In fact you can see it in the background.

 

Well the best I can do for you is "the imprint" that's all she said you can have.
But it is 200.8 and the limit size for posting is 200. Poor luck. I guess I could gr Ajax to post it.

I shall try that. He's up late you may still get it.

 

Richard said you'd all enjoy this:


And btw Richard, your email doesnt like to receive messages.

 

I think i see a vulva on the volvo

 

She was right about car guys and perversions.

 

So are you planning on putting a filter of some sort in the intake line after the unit? Just in case one of those very sturdy looking blades travelling near the speed of sound after rapid positive/negative acceleration for who knows how many hours comes off.

 

Farken Farny quote of the day!!!

ROFLMAO!!!! Good one Silverarrow!

 

gsdev, one of the first calc's that you do when designing these things is to stress the blades. These happen to have a safety factor of 4. I have never had a problem, even when they were investment cast. Now they are billet unobtainium.

Hymee, e mail me the meaning of those letters. I guess they are letters cause you can't say it out loud.

 

Not doubting quality, just call me paranoid. Unless you are going to issues a warrantee that will encompass the engine. I would really like that. In fact, that is a much better idea than the filter.

 

Rolling On the Floor Laughing My A$$ Off! It is just much shorter to say ROFLMAO

 

gsdev, why's everybody always picking on me. Think about it, these blades are grams. That means there is no energy in them. They have less then 2 psi against them. That is per sq inch. These are only .1 sq inch or less. So that's less then .2 lbs on it. 3 ozs. Why don't you think a heavy rotor out of a roots will come apart??
I don't know all of the aftermarket roots blowers are built but the GM types are castings.
They are larger in outside diameter then mine. There is much more mass out there then mine. They are much longer then mine. They have all their pressure on one surface.

So pick on them for awhile. I will give you a warrantee for one year on the compressor. Unless you drop something in it. Then any blower will fail. In fact mine will probably loose some blades but the engine can pass them. Can it pass a screw rotor?? I have seen where someone droped something into one of my V8 blowers and lost alot of blades. He had to pull the heads because some got stuck under a valve or two. But nothing was damaged. A valve job and on your way. You think that would happen with any other compressor???

So pick on them.

I once had a 8-71 blower on my drag boat and it somehow failed. I needed a new block, one head, one rod, a set of pistons plus the blower.

 

It would be a lot easier with her pants off.

A word of advice.

Even if you think someone is picking on you, just answer the question (as you have) and don't let them get under your skin.

Keep it short and sweet.

Mr wiggles, first she is a horse person, those are chaps. Second, I was kidding, it was like the old song "Charlie Brown."
I wasn't letting him get under my skin. If I were that sensitive I'd never be able to do this. Can you imagine how many times I've heard "if it's so good, how come no one has done it before?"
That's funny, now that I think about it no one on this forum has asked that. Must be an advanced group of people. Of course they are, they get that question themselves don't they. Re: rotarys.

I'm having a good time here, no complaints about the members of this forum. Exept that they want to look over my shoulder every day. I kinda like that too. It's a complement.

 

Ya'll are hiding women pics in this thread!!?

 

That pic was posted on the funny pics thread like 2 days ago :p

 

I get the "If its so good then why isn't everyone doing it" about my car all the time. far be it from me to pass it on to you. I am a research engineer not a design engineer, I was just following my logic/paranoia. Carry on thou brave soldier. Fight the good fight of Forced Induction. When you emerge victorious may you be hailed as a hero to the rotary world. Maybe then your gf and I can hook up for a photo shoot together.
