If you do not know if the RX-7 has a rebuild kit or not. I do not advic rebuilding it. Yes there are a couple of sites you can go to for a rebuild kit. However, make sure you calculate how much the rebuild and tools will cost and compare to buying a rbuild kit.

Having a shop and the tools are two different things. The 13b requires many tools which are more common to a machinest. I suggest you go to Atkins rotary and purchase the rebuilding tape. I have been doing rotaries since the RX-2 came out and I learned a few tricks.

I agree with Eraumazda. If you don't know whether or not a kit is available, (and can't type out a message that another human being can understand without a special "I don't know anything about spelling or punctuation" decipher code book) then it isn't recommended that you go taking your motor apart. Get the video to see how it is done, what kind of damaged or worn parts you may come across, and what kind of tools you will need. Then you can better plan for removing and rebuilding the motor, what type of tools you will need, and you should look into the price for parts so you don't get you motor apart and find out you can't afford to put it back together. If you have no experience rebuilding a motor, you may be better off selling the motor to someone who does know how, and buying a motor that is already rebuild by a qualified person.

you can also yank out the engine yourself. Since you have a shop, and take it to Mazsport in Largo FL. Scott the owner can hook you up. save some cash on the R/R
