Chaps,
I=20 have just completed an interesting experiment with the volume of a = couple of=20 different = rotors.
 
The=20 RX8 rotor does in fact hold more oil than it's predecessors, as one = expects from=20 the Mazda blurb - between an old rotor( sorry don't know what it = is) and=20 the RX8 rotor, there is a 5.26 oz = difference
Hi=20 George, so what is the volume, or better, the mass of the oil carried in = the=20 rotor for balance purposes? BR, Dave McC
