Rusty,
I'm working on aluminium housings with steel wear
surface inserts - similar to what Richard Sohn is doing.
For the life of me I can't understand why there's
trouble with the front housing, it seems the easiest to do - did they give a
reason for the delay. Perhaps there's something ( some problem) I'm not
seeing!?

last week i noticed that racing beat has custom aluminum
center and end housings for 13b rotary engines, huge weight savings, very
expensive, has any one ever considered using theses castings to replace the
stock heavy steel end and center housings,
Hi
Mike,
I think we've all
fantasized about using them at one time or another, but unfortunately, the
front housing wasn't available the last time I asked RB in January.
They've advertised these for years, but never quite got around to finishing
the front housing. The rear and intermediate have been available for
some time though
Cheers,
Rusty
