That "60%" comment was only mentioned in an explanation for the train
of events leading up to the build-up of the Renesis in my RV-4 (long boring
story, see website if interested). It has no other significance and there
is no good reason to make the shaft longer.

Thanks Tracy,
I appreciate the response as I'm ready to order
parts.
I've also ordered a single set of your Apex Seals for my
single RX8 rotor - I have to get a cheque to Laura!
I was reading some comments on your site, which someone
kindly referred me to, about the e-shaft only inserting into the Rx8
pulley by about 60 % of the depth of the pulley.
Question:-
If designing a single e-shaft from scratch to
accommodate the RX8 pulley ( with timing wheel) - should I allow for a longer
shaft.
TIA

Assuming you have no problems mounting the wheel & sensor in the
same relative position they are on the RX-8 engine, it will work fine on any
rotary (1,2, 0r 3 rotors). You must order EC2 with the RX-8 crank
sensor option for this to work of course.

Tracy,
Can the RX8 timing wheel and sensor be used
on the RX7 and can I use it on the single without causing other problems -
using your EMS.
