As far as porting, all the (main) shops like RX-7 Store, KDR, Pineapple, Pettit, Gotham Racing, etc are all good. It's just personal preference as to which one you pick.

if your car is the stock one in your signature, i say get the reman and keep it as stock as you can, but if you plan on goin for power, nothing beats the performance of a ported engine. personally, i'd go stock, but that's just me!

If you want to go ported you're better off getting new houseings / replace what's worn beyond tollerances, since a reman doesn't come ported, so you have to pay someone to tear it appart and port it... which will end up costing more than porting what you have, and just replacing what's worn beyond specs...

Just a Thought...

Personally I'm verry happy with my ported engine from Rotary Power, in Gardena, Ca.... but I don't really see a need for you to ship it across country... I'm sure someone can give you a good reccomendation on the east coast...

keep in mind that if you port the motor depending on the port job you will probably need an aftermarket ecu

Hey, I'm on Long Island too

I'd say have the motor rebuilt locally using higher quality silicon seals and maybe other internal mods if you gots cash. Keep the stock ports so you can emissions when needed.

I had mine rebuilt and installed at J&R in elmont. They did a great job. Given the mileage, you might want to also have the fuel pulsation dampener and stock fuel lines replaced and also rewrap the rats nest with some nice heat resistant material.

don't forget a fresh clutch since everything is out and maybe a light flywheel (if you got extra $$).

Again is you got some $$ burning a hole in your pocket, you can have the intakes manifolds jet-hot coated to help keep you air temps lower and the downpipe as well.

it might be a year and 30k+ miles till you need a new motor. dont lose faith in the rotary.

Are you going to do any fuel mods at this time?

Not always true. The remans have new housings and can be taken apart and ported and reassembled at a good price. If you take apart a high milage motor chances are both housings are worn, and the housings are going to have to be ported in either case (reman or rebuild) and you will need all new seals,springs and gaskets in the rebuild, not the reman as they are already new. (not to mention other out of spec worn out parts).

so then i guess the best option is to do the ported engine because its like killing two birds with 1 stone---and then some


thanks guys for the help
