Decent stock rebuild?????

Hi gals/guys.

ITs been a while for me since I've been here.Years probably. I used to have an FC.


Well I just recently accquired an 93 fd twin turbo with a blown rear apex seal. Are there any decent rebuilders that you know of that are reputable. That wont cost me 4k.

I dont want anything ridiculous, I just want the car to run well enough to have a little bit of weekend fun in it.

:nb4 you cheap bastard, this is an expensive car.

RotaryResurrection.com is a great choice, also if you would just want to buy a prebuilt shortblock so you could keep yours or sell it then I can help you out.

Here is my site, www.rotaryrebuildstore.com. I am offering a little bit lower rates at the moment. $2450.00 Shipped for stock port and $2600.00 Shipped with a streetport.

Its no real secret. What I replace is on my site even though I do replace a couple more things since it has been updated.

We just dont charge $1-2k in labor to build the engine, we arent getting rich off of it but just trying to make a decent living. I can build you any engine for the same or less than any other rotary shop that I am aware of. If you want new housings, whatever apex seals you want, lapped irons, side clearanced rotors, 3mm rotors, etc, etc.

Just to clarify mine come with New Apex seals, Apex Seal Springs, Solid Corners, Metal Front Cover Gasket, New viton oil control rings, Oem Coolant seals and coolant o-rings, New Front and Rear main seals, rebuilt oil pump, Atkins Thermal pellet, and probably a couple other things I am leaving out.

There are actually a decent number of shops that do full rebuilds for around $1500.00 or less.

rotaryrebuildstore.com
Banzai-racing.com(I think that is the correct web address)
