-custom machined dual -6 port pieces, which look awesome in my totally unbiased opinion, if you choose that over the single -10 port option.

There was a lot of work done to find the proper o ring that would assure a proper seal. my previous oil necks (yes, plural, hence why I decided to take on this endeavor) did not meet my expectations as far as fitment and line up is concerned. There was a lot of time spent and prototyping spent on just the flange. The oem oil fill flange is not centered with the mounting bolts. And, to make it really fun, there is a variance between 93 and 95 oil flanges, as far as hardware spacing goes, by more than a 1/10th of an inch... which is significant in the machining world. :rant: This explains the slotted design on one end of some of the other necks in the past. However, having only one end slotted meant that some lined up well, while others lined up poorly. These issues have all been addressed with this unit.

And a couple pictures of the fitment of the flange. This is the part I am most proud of.

And the flange with built in baffle. It is rotated to align with the engine.

That was fast! Thanks! Just so everyone knows, I am still making these and my initial costs at running only 10-15 units would have been over what IRP is offering them at right now. They backed this project so we could do a much larger quantity (of which an unemployed man like me could not afford to front) to bring the costs down.

The flanges are custom
The neck piece is custom
The dual port pieces are custom
The single -10 ports are custom.

The pipe and 90 degree fittings are the only part that we didn't make. (and the O-ring and bolts too of course)

So basically, this is as far from off the shelf as a piece can get. I am very happy with how they turned out.

My favorite custom touch.

We should have some install picks up soon with different manifolds and elbows.

Ok, quick update time. It's been crazy with Thanksgiving and all.

So there is going to have to be a choice made for those wanting the single -10 fitting. The front lifting eye is in the way and will need to be removed, and the -10 port will be facing forward. There is just no other good way to put a -10 fitting in there without requiring different modifications.

Otherwise, the dual port will be facing inwards as per the original pictures. and not require removal of the front lifting eye. I will be contacting everyone who has the single -10 selected to assure they know that this piece will require the lifting eye removed.

Oh, and pending those responses, there should be more fitment pics coming soon. I am sure everyone is wanting to get their hands on one as soon as possible.

Final pieces for fitment are on their way to IRP. Once they are blessed off, then final production and shipping for those involved in the group buy begins.

Progress! Final production is almost commencing. Just have to finalize fitment with different lower and elbow combinations.

Dual -6 with stock lower:

Single -10 with stock lower:

http://www.rotarycarclub.com/rotary_...1&d=1387002707

Single -10 with Xcessive lower:

http://www.rotarycarclub.com/rotary_...1&d=1387002713
http://www.rotarycarclub.com/rotary_...1&d=1387002720


These ended up being a complete redesign from what is out there. Jut waiting on final fit checks with various lower/elbow combinations to determine if there will need to be two separate units for the stock lower and for the Xcessive lower.

Hope you guys like them! Final production should be starting soon!!!
