I was sitting in bed last night, and this came to me. If this was previously discussed and I missed it, I apologize, I could not find it.
I have been reading a lot of the threads about failures, and about series 1 vs series 2. I know that for series 2, they redesigned a lot of little things, including the OMP and the fuel injectors. My premise is simple:
Could you put the updated rotor housings in a series 1 engine? You would gain the center OMP nozzle (better oiling). Now, you do have additional fuel injectors, but I assume you could block those ports off and just use the four you had before. This would give you the better oil dispersion of a series 2, but the benefits of the SOHN from series 1. The racing beat oil mod can be used to increase oil pressure, to get closer to series 2 levels.
Im not talking about a series 2 engine in a series 1 car, I know thats been debated to death.
Would you gain anything from the extra oil nozzle? How much trouble would this be, assuming you are already doing a complete tear down. From what I could see, the dowel pins to connect the housings together are the same, so it should work mechanically.
Just spitballing here, let me know what you think
:dunno:
