Im looking to do some mods this Summer for the longevity of the motor and looking for good info.

Im planning on doing radiator and water pump.

I know Mazmart makes a water pump and I think I have heard of a Remedy water pump as well but I cant find info on this?

Also, Ive been thinking of getting the GReddy oil pan as well since it hold 1000cc more of oil. Im wondering if the oil pan will do anything to help keep the oil cool or not. What do you guys think?

Any info would help.

Thanks.

 

the remedy is the mazmart h2o pump.. so that is covered..

change the oil often.. i would think about a higher weight oil in tx..

as to cooling. the bhr radiator does aid in cooling. as does the mazsport cooling mod.. the ap accesport and racing beat flash also do the same.

the oil pan will gain you little.. i am bugging charles r hill for bigger oil coolers..

Look out for RE-medy radiators and thermostats as well soon. We will provide the best engine oil we find to add to our line-up as well. I'm pretty sure I know what that's going to be but I'm still researching others to ensure we are giving the community the ulimate in quality protection.

O_O Stop Paul STOP !

If one day I gotta file for bankruptcy is gonna be your fault !!!!!

 

We promise to keep all the members of the RE-volution happy, even if some become bankrupt .

Paul.

 

whoa, even more big stuff from the Mazmart camp!

 

I tried checking Mazmarts page but I didnt see a spot to check the pricing of the water pump. Anyone know?

 

$230 + S& H

Cooling is a good thing as has been touched on already...

Cobb AccessPORT with MM's maps. Among other things, MM's maps lower the radiator fan turn-on temps, and adjusts the oil metering pump profile to inject more oil. There is only debate about the oiling/OMP. perhaps its fine, perhaps it doesnt inject enough oil on the stcok flash, perhaps even after MM's maps on the AP you should still premix.

i think the BEST solution for oiling is the Sohn OMP.... allows you to inject 2 stroke oil into the chambers, but requires you to keep an eye on another fluid level, and more installation/work

 

thanks Jedi!! now i can add this to my build/wishlist thread that has tuned into more of a personal log/diary of my thought process for the last few months through the next year and a half or so until i can start

i was trying to add this today when i edited my most recent post, but i was too lazy to find out what it costs, lol

 

I got ya covered Paul.

 

....and if Mazmart's radiator is better than BHR's at a lesser price, I would gladly discontinue my own and move on to other projects.

 

all the goodies ... one day these goodies gonna suck all my money out then I will have to sell my blood to continue ... lol

 

I think you get a higher price on sperm nowdays not?

Anyways I was on the Mazmart site, and you can't order it. Theres information on it, but no order form and whatnot. I take it you gotta call them?

 

True, but I will sell my *precious* only if I run out of options ...

Yes, you have to call them.

If Paul picks up the phone, tell him to give you a *Jackson Discount*

 

I'm here in to the late hours of the night trying to figure the details of what I like and don't like about the stage that our programmer has gotten to on our online store (Not presently live). I really want it to work well and satisfy the greatest number of people. I'd like for it to be live within a week but I've been saying similar for2 or 3 months now. Thanks for checking out our site anyways.

Our web designer is working on all our static pages presently also, no music or thrills, should be neat.

Paul.

 

tease.

beers

 

This water Remedy water pump, I've been reading about this. I don't quite get how this is better than the stock one? It prevents cativation (sp). What does that mean? Stock doesn't prevent this mysterious word?

 

Cavitation is when the pressure of a region of water falls below it's vapor pressure point and thus suddenly becomes water vapor. This can be seen happening underwater around boat props where the area behind the moving prop leaves a void of such low pressure that some water becomes vapor and fills the void. The bubbles of water vapor can then be seen floating to the surface. The prop in your water pump can do the same thing at high enough rpm and causes water vapor bubbles to form in your coolant. Not good.

Supposedly the Remedy pump is designed such that it does not cavitate when spinning at the higher rpms of our engines and so fewer bubbles occur in the coolant.

Bubbles in the coolant adversely affect the ability for heat to transfer out of the engine to a very great degree; and being that you are at high rpms already its about a worst case scenario.

 

My advice on extending engine life:

Use magnets around your oil filter, have a look at this page car bibles oil page, you'll have to scroll down a lot, search the page for Bear Trap to make it faster. Using magents DOES work well.

Cavitation causes the marbles in a blender sound in the heater core as the bubbles run thru it.

 

Your funny!
Magnets will do nothing for the rotary.
We don't have all those moving parts, so no metal floating around.

Only thing missing form the suggestions above is a vented hood.

 

I've seen mention of a Racing Beat oil cooler--what do people think of it?

 

That's an upgrade where you send in your MOP and they make it so you pump out more oil to your seals.

Your better off controlling it through the software via the Access Port form MM.

 

Wow. Thats the first explanation I've ever heard that actually makes sense for that noise I get from my glovebox at high RPMs...

 

yeah, right... try using a magnetic drain plug on the oil and say that same thing with a straight face.
