Anybody sell complete short blocks?
My motor maybe needing a rebuilt at some point. It is a S4 13BT JDM motor. However I am not sure I could go a month or so with out a motor in the car. Because it will be my DD in a few weeks. I do have a Motorcycle but they still have their limitations. So I was wondering if anybody sells ported shortblocks, or if there was a better way to handle this?

Many vendors sell rebuilt engine blocks. You can call them to see if they have a 13BT available.

Ohio is like a 2 day trip for me. It depends on what you got for how much.
I would like to build the motor to put out 325 rwhp. and still be daily driven. I have read that a reliable turbo rotary is a pipe dream.
I have never rebuilt any engine before. The closest i came was rebuilting a 10 hp merc outbroad carb, and i did it wrong,

Pulling, opening, rebuilding, and installing is a 2 day project MAX if you are not an idiot.

Is it worthwhile for a street car ? to 99% of the people, probably not.
I got it because I'm doing a complete restore, and planning to keep this car till the end of time so why not go with something last forever ?(assume everything running correctly)
Bought completely new housing (all 5), its at BDC now getting some sweet love, the engine is pretty much 85-90% new parts. some of the stuff is still re-usable (will sell it back out soon after I'm done cleaning it)
but again, I want to keep this for a loooong time and I don't want to deal with a rebuild every few years so yeah, might as well do it once and be done with it.
