    Looking good Carl:) Have you plans to brace the ena of the plate, (four coners)? We didn't at first, but found out that the plate was bent when tightning the blower.

    Looking good as allways in the B&B garage:) Hmm the in and out With the rotors sounded familiar;) I think i can take the blower appart and together blainfolded;) Just an advice, if you haven't done it, be sure to plug the hole in the casing from the front bearing plate. Othervise it could cause some oil leak.
    What parts do you need for the injection set-up?
