just the basics and w/e I can afford. If I had money I would get new housings and a whole new master rebuild kit and bearings.. but eh..
Mazdatrix said my engine seized because I had no endplay, causing my front bearings to collapse. I had replace front bearing plate, front staionary gear,bearing, needle bearing, and the e shaft. Got all that for $140 from mazdatrix Good people thereLearned something new and iimportant.
I really want new springs, because last time I used used springs and that could be a reason why my engine was low compression.

yo holla at me... you need to remove the flappers, and trim some of the metal out and then shave it

do it extreme like this


Then when you put it together, you gotta do the TPS adjustments with a multimeter to correct the idle and all will be good.

Are you really going to use those rotor housings?

Once it is all put together I want to start a timebomb countdown hehehe J/k

I hope this engine works out for you.
