Sodium Hydroxide is an aluminum dissolver that doesn’t destroy chromium or carbide. It’s what machinists use to remove carbide and steel bits or burrs of packed aluminum.
@@mileycyprus7210 Can damage/interact with other parts as it's a acid, and isn't guaranteed to get rid of just the aluminum. "Sodium Hydroxide" AKA Lye, has a chemical interaction with the aluminum to turn it into hydrogen gas, and is a strong base, making it less harmful to the other parts. I use it to remove the aluminum melted onto seized iron bores from 2 strokes. Where as using muriatic acid would destroy the iron.
@anonymous you still should re-hone for best results/performance since the cylinder is still scuffed up, but, soaking it in water **heavily** saturated in lye will remove the aluminum entirely from **iron** cylinders.

Rob have you tried aviation apex seals like the Vargas brothers have done? They talk very highly of them, and as an aircraft tech I would imagine anything with "aviation" in front of the name usually means they're tougher & would handle more abuse.
the aviation seals are known to be very harsh on housings, they are good for drag or racing applications because they are very durable and because its common to rebuild engines often and replace parts but for more of a street car they are not very good
The 3 rotor ran them for years. The housings were worn but also ran for 9 years over 750 hp. I am not currently testing them but just giving full disclosure
Rob: "You just need a stack of RX7 wheels and some random wood pieces to assemble a rotary engine!" Vargas Brothers: "A bucket... You need one bucket..." Keep up the good content, always a pleasure getting to see what you are up to.
Rob, to remove aluminum from harder metals like cast iron, steel, chrome, etc., we used to use a strong caustic solution. It will eat away any aluminum contamination on other metals, but you have to be very careful of any surrounding aluminum because it will eat away at any aluminum it touches.
Rob, unsure if you've ever seen Angel Motorsports but they also use Hylomar but have it in like a syringe with a steel tip - makes getting it into those tight coolant seal gaps in the housings that much easier! Just a thought, love the work - huge fan from NZ.
Hey Rob, you have progressed so much, that we, mechanical engineers, love to hear and learn with your videos. At least, that's what happens to me. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge. Cheers from Santiago, Chile.
Wow, thought you would have been down the hylomar road already. Be mindful to work quickly with it, more importantly, don’t apply it to the o-rings and let them sit and then go take a lunch half way through the build. It WILL cause the seals to swell - ask me how I know 🤦🏻♂️ Like most of the materials you put in your motors I’m sure you’ve done your research into it’s origins and intended uses. It’s definitely a solid addition to the assembly.
You have no idea how much I appreciate the depth and detail you put into these build videos, I learn new things every single time. Seriously thank you for teaching us such valuable information and tips and advice.
Rob, where is the theoretical bottleneck in this engine with regards to hp; eventually would the e shaft tapers start to slip and take the keys with them? Or shear at a keyway first? Edit/Reply; I think it's interesting we have several well thought out opinions below, but no clear consensus. Rob we'd love for you to chime in! I am betting you have modeled all the internal components and know that the e shaft will hold 2khp (or have been assured it will by the original machinist). I am still wondering what fails first. The RPM vs Apex seal lifting is interesting, but as you stack rotors up to 6 lets say, I would bet that at a functional RPM the size limitations of the e shaft which cannot grow start to become an issue first. Also, it's not like he is gonna put this on an engine dyno to gently find the limits; he's gonna rev it to 6500 and 2 step the launch and he still doesn't have a slipper clutch. He'll stay in on the dyno up to 7k all wheel drive. If the clutch, driveshaft, trans and tires can hold 2k I would think the next thing in line is the e shaft.
I don't know much about rotarys other than what I learned from Daddy Dahm. It seems to me like apex seals are going to be an issue as indicated by the wear he polished out of the rotor housing in the beginning. I would think side seals would be the next weak point but once again, I don't know a ton about rotarys.
My money's on the apex seals lifting off the housing's surface just after crossing the area where the two peritrochoid 'lobes' meet. Passing that point the rotor apex is traveling tangential to the peritrochoid surface so there isn't really any centripetal force helping the apex seal maintain contact with the housing when the housing shape needs the the apex seal to reverse direction; ie. radially into then out-of the apex seal slot. A loss of sealing here will cause a drop in compression and limit power. Also, the speed at which the apex seal needs to change direction is a function of RPM so the loss of sealing is the limiting factor there; the limited RPM limits overall engine power.
@@evancourtney7746 oil is going to be your limiting factor. To fix the issue you're talking about, you just need stronger springs behind the apex seal. but, from the extra spring pressure you're going to start pressing out your oil film
Ultimately. It depends on torque output. If torque is kept under control and revs used to achieve hp. Then really its how well the engine can breathe. Again all engines are air pumps. More air. More fuel more powa baby
The cool thing is they really are almost like Legos. It fairly easy to just make a comparison to a 2 rotor. So 2000 HP is approximately the same as a 2 rotor at 1000 HP. The recipe for that is fairly well known. Which is great for this project. It has good odds for success.
Why not just use 100% acetone as a degreaser ??? Why cheaper than break clean and works as good or better(better imo) when I changed from brake clean to acetone to clean projects before tig welding made a world of difference!!
With the side seals expanding with heat as all metals do, now much longer to they get? .025 clearence cold but do you know what that is at operating temperature? Just curious cuz that's when it matters..... Also could you use piano wire for your cooling seals. If the high hp want to spit the cases. Like with head gaskets with wire in them. Just a thought
Ok so hot tip, saw at 14:35 or so you flip that puppy and realized the tolerances are going to depend on the surface you're assembling on.. coming from the 3D printer world I can tell you that glass is about one of the flattest surfaces that can be easily obtained. If glass doesn't sound like a pleasant assembly surface I think with your budget you can also buy surfaces specifically made to be extremely flat that are made of alternative materials.
Hey Rob, long time fan, You have been very interested in oil performance and the science behind it. I think you should look into Mo Glide friction reducer.
I love how technical you get and how much detail you guys show us. I’ve worked on plenty of engines but never a rotary but feel like I could knock it out.
It's pretty cool seeing Hylomar sealant being used in different ways, especially building a 2000hp 4 rotor. I've used an Hylomar aviation version before on Pratt-Whitney V2500 engines.
Hylomar is great for its intended use. It must be clean and stay clean. It's nice to be able to take apart and readjust if necessary. As for sealing make sure the directions are followed because it doesn't take much to get the job done. There is a video by the manufacturer that explains the different grades and suggested uses
Let's see if anyone knows what this is from. *Ahura, a Mazda FD RX-7, a car barely alive.* Rob: Gentlemen we can rebuild it, we have the technology. We have the capability to make the worlds first 4 rotor all wheel drive Mazda FD RX-7. Ahura will be that car, better than it was before. Better, stronger and faster."
Out of curiosity, Why don't Rotards pre-assemble Rotors ? Legit, why not assemble like.... 8-10 of them at a time so you never really have to worry about the gaps and seals and such during assembly ??
I would seriously love to understand the witchcraft behind these mystical power plants.... but I am quite opinionated as to the inherent design flaws ! not that i may have any solutions ? lol imagine having a hollow 30mm cylinder head ...... Keep up the good work. love the vid !
Rob this is completely unrelated to the video but I was just watching Mighty Car Mods, and I think it is absolutely about fucking time you built a monster 1st gen RX7.
good job, you just annihilated the surface dressing of the rotor.. The surface finish has been the hardest thing for plasma coaters to do, it is VERY specific.. and you just sanded it off, this is akin for honing a cylinder to a mirror polish, no hatching.
@@josephwhitley1963 there is a factory surface porosity, a 'dressing', that holds oil to keeps the housing face lubricated. Just as cross hatching on cylinder walls, but finer. Shops that started to plasma coat worn housings were going mental trying to reproduce the surface.. it's very specific. in both topography and application ( has it's own type of axial cross hatching. ) Rob , in hitting it with that flapper wheel, polished the surface, removing the 'dressing' the rotor housing surface will no longer hold oil making the housing and seal Mu or friction coefficient go up dramatically and that will increase heat, materials wear and degradation
Rob Dahm. One of the few poeple on earth who can buy a 50k+ engine which probably was the best of it's kind and almost single handedly improve it significantly. But don't get me wrong this feat is still no excuse for the abrupt video endings
seals effect endplay with everything. i work for a company checking endplay all day. never thought i would have but i'm gaining so much confidence from valuable experience. i may rebuild my own transmissions and engines but not diffs lol
I love love love that Rob is showing us all this, remember when he was working with Abel and we didn't see shit and all was a secret... thank you Rob ❤

good job, you just annihilated the surface dressing of the rotor.. The surface finish has been the hardest thing for plasma coaters to do, it is VERY specific.. and you just sanded it off, this is akin for honing a cylinder to a mirror polish, no hatching.
am ignorant. So this is a bad thing what he’s done then?
@@josephwhitley1963 there is a factory surface porosity, a 'dressing', that holds oil to keeps the housing face lubricated. Just as cross hatching on cylinder walls, but finer. Shops that started to plasma coat worn housings were going mental trying to reproduce the surface.. it's very specific. in both topography and application ( has it's own type of axial cross hatching. ) Rob , in hitting it with that flapper wheel, polished the surface, removing the 'dressing' the rotor housing surface will no longer hold oil making the housing and seal Mu or friction coefficient go up dramatically and that will increase heat, materials wear and degradation
@@ianskinner1619 ah yes. That actually makes perfect sense.
This title is so BS clickbait. Rob is absolutely going to push this until it blows. "2000hp? I wonder if I can get 2200hp." 🤣
Once again Rob abandons the end of the video like my father.
I don't need a gf, I need to build a rotary.
Rob Dahm. One of the few poeple on earth who can buy a 50k+ engine which probably was the best of it's kind and almost single handedly improve it significantly.
But don't get me wrong this feat is still no excuse for the abrupt video endings
I have come to accept the abrupt endings. Would feel strange if it ended logically.
@@TempleofAmon666 yaeh okay you're right, it does give allot of character.
the day Rob has an actual outro in a video is the day the world ends
Jesus Christ lol.. Rob Dahm logic says.. fuck it.. Let's go for 2000hp because the 4 rotor struggling to put down 1200hp wasn't terrifying enough.
Can’t wait until you beat the hoonicorn with that
Mmm 180 grit seems a bit much. Bet 300 would do better, less chance of going through the hardened layer inside.
Hi rob greetings from ur Brasilian fans. You are awesome.
Talk to Pac Performance to tell you how to do it so you don't break it :P they will just laugh when you say 2000hp : P
Tungsten is the honey badger of metals - it just doesn't give a sh!t
Probly going to need some billet housings for 2000hp id say.
The 4 rotor isn’t what makes the channel what it is, the fact that you’ve never completed a project is what makes this channel what it is.
At this point I think the FBI should step in. This build will be too sick, it might start multiple wars.
These long ass videos are always so satisfying to watch like no blinking allowed its such a treat really😍😍
That opening!!! Omg I love it!! Awesome video and this is fun
Going for 2000 hp with an engine that's been apart longer than it's been together during the life of the channel. 🤔
Lol its already hairy just north of 1000hp what's it going to be like at 2k
Did you clean the Hylomar from the swept surfaces? It would gum the side seals if not.
Always 1 rotor behind mazzei that’s gotta suck😂
seals effect endplay with everything. i work for a company checking endplay all day. never thought i would have but i'm gaining so much confidence from valuable experience. i may rebuild my own transmissions and engines but not diffs lol
Finally got around to watching this video and boy did it go by fast, good job!
Dear Valvoline. Please sponsor this man. Thank you.
like how he has a dope CNC machine yet welds nuts together as his install tool lol Rob c'mon
Why don't you race your cars? You work to much and don't play at all.
I love love love that Rob is showing us all this, remember when he was working with Abel and we didn't see shit and all was a secret... thank you Rob ❤
The hylomar I've seen used on other channels and they completely coat the coolant seals with a light coat.
Is commenting "first" still a thing even tho I'm not?
Kids will be kids 🤪
2k HP rotary? You're fuckin crazy man 🤣👌
Say hello to ROB DAHM the future Einstein
How about going for finishin a project that works??
Almost a million subscribers , I'm happy for you bro🔥💯you deserve it for the effort and time you put in
Unbelievable what losing to a GTR makes a man do 🤣
Hell yeah rob, super stoked to see how far youve come! Get that 4 rotor ripping!
