no name builder with receipts but with good comp numbers, $500 or so

The procedure to do a compression test with a conventional tester can be found in the archives.

you would probably get more $$ for it if you parted it out.
assuming everything is in good shape and it doesnt have really high miles.

"Mazda built", you mean stock and in the car still or a rebuild from the dealer? I can't imagine getting an engine of any sort for those prices! wow.

im talking a rebuild from mazda or stock build. prices are a lot different in you location and mine, east coast and west coast. i sold a mazda rebuilt 4 port 13b with light weight flywheel and clutch for $500. thats also because i was friends with the buyer and cutting him a deal.
