zguy36 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Before you blast me with the search hate, I'll let you know that I have! This isn't a question for nissan engines, but this is always a good source for knowledge. A friend of mine got a bit carried away with the porting on his rx7 rotary and ran into a water jacket. Don't ask me why, but he continued until the hole was about one square inch. I have heard of people using a filler of some sort for cylinder heads for this same purpose. Do you guys know the name of this stuff? And also if it will work for a hole that big? Thanks for the help. -jeremy- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProjectSR20 Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 What is that motor made of, iron or aluminum? Some people have had success welding a hole like that closed, but from the sound of it he f***** up the motor. I think that hole might be too big to patch. Maybe try some JB weld if you can get something to support it from behind and grind it smooth....just a guess bceause I don't know these things at all.

510six Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I would check on a Rotary engine forum.I seem to recall a peripheral intake port rotary owner talking about getting the side port intake welded up before going to a peripheral intake.Like I said check on a Rotary engine Forum.
