Ya know, you can just call any transmission shop and have them do it. It's not exactly exotic. If you use a light flywheel, you don't even have to remove the front cover to change the front counterweight, which makes the process sigificantly less complicated.

Average transmission shop:

"Sorry, we don't touch Wankels."



I went to quite a few places that wouldn't even flush my transmission due to the fact that is was a rotary, back when I had my auto.

One more thing, why does the fron counterweight have to be removed?
