I do not know if this is the right place for this but here it is anyway. Went to Shreveport, LA to meet my 17yo daughter to take her to her Dr's Appt and to find this Jose's Rotary shop to look at my 84 with stock 12A, had idle problems, accelerating other thing, His shop was near where my daughter lives. After about 15 minutes on my car he found the Spring behind the Carb that controls the idle was on wrong, accelrator cable was in wrong place and was not even secure with a bolt, Car ran beautiful on the way back home and hardly used any gas unlike coming up here. Well he took me into his shop and I thought I had died and went to RX7 HEaven!!! This guy had over 100 RX7's most of them modified, with Corvette motor, 5.0 mustang, Turbos you name it he had it. He had these two gigantic warehouses. He was working on a 84 GLS-SE and was putting in a 20B and was hoping to run under a 6 sec 1/4 mile. It was unbelievable, I thought iI was in heaven. He has a 85 GLS-Se with a right hand drive that I want and a 83 witha TII turbo motor that I ran against a Dodge Viper on I20 and kicked his ***. The guy followed us to Jose's shop and you should've seen his face when he saw what was under the hood of that car. He wants 17,000 and I am going to sell some of my gold coins this week and hope to get it. Everybody thought it was a Porche or some kinda of Ferrari. I am going back up there next Wed and if he lets me take some pics. Thanks, GAry
