atkins rotary engines come with 3mm seals!ghostrx7 04-23-2005, 11:03 AM just doin some research and saw that the atkins engines for the tII all come with 3mm seals, plus the 2 yr warranty!list price is 2100/550 core charge. sounds like a great deal to me! drftk1d 04-24-2005, 12:35 PM yeah atkins is great. but the effectiveness of 3mm seals is HIGHLY debatable. D3rELiC 04-24-2005, 03:28 PM twas even posted on atkins site that a dragracer was running 52 lbs of boost on 2mm drftk1d 04-25-2005, 02:39 PM i was talking to my builder yesterday (dropped off the engine). he told me that the 3mm seals wear down the housings faster. ghostrx7 04-25-2005, 03:12 PM i heard they dont seal as well, but are more reliable. if atkins and other building companies are now offering them with all engines, they must be ok, plus warranty is my key word!lol J-Rat 04-26-2005, 03:15 AM After watching a rotary get rebuilt, I am NEVER paying anyone to do it for me again.. drftk1d 04-26-2005, 12:08 PM cuz its so easy right? Soyo 04-26-2005, 01:41 PM I don't think 3mm seals are worth it, I haven't seen any proof of them being better than regular seals ghostrx7 04-26-2005, 01:54 PM ur saying its not worth it, but im saying they come freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!with purchase of engine of course! Soyo 04-26-2005, 04:44 PM I'm saying rebuild an engine for about $600 less ghostrx7 04-26-2005, 05:30 PM did i ask u if it came with a warranty?if it does i definately would like to go that route, but im just fixing the manifold leak for now. D3rELiC 04-26-2005, 08:17 PM did i ask u if it came with a warranty?if it does i definately would like to go that route, but im just fixing the manifold leak for now. best warranty is doing it urself. Soyo 04-27-2005, 12:29 AM 1 year warranty on all 1.5 years if he installs the engine as well J-Rat 04-28-2005, 03:14 PM cuz its so easy right? Are you kidding? It can be done in a few hours! ghostrx7 04-28-2005, 03:41 PM maybe with the proper tools and experience, i wish there were rotory freaks around here so i could feel more confortable ripping my car apart! drftk1d 04-28-2005, 04:57 PM Are you kidding? It can be done in a few hours! i wasnt being sarcastic at all. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
