What? Another RX-7 I must be crazy

Picked up a 94 FD RX-7.  Blown engine, rust, bad bodywork and bad interior.    Next decision what powerplant 20b NA or 13b 5866.

It Works

Well I am now printing.   Did the majority of my calibration and setting of parameters for PLA with my E3D V5 hotend.   It appears the fan on the E3D is a bit small and was causing the PLA to jam after printing for 30 minutes or so.  I played with the temperature but will make a new shroud for a larger fan and try and cool the transition from the block to the fins.  I have a heated bed on its way and need to order some ABS and Laywood to try.
