Guess I need a rebuild

Some of you guys have seen my vid on my knocking motor and after searching in the 3rd gen section I found this....

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...knock+knocking

It turned out to be a rotor bearing and I checked basically all of how he checked.

So now I need a rebuild...this sucks because I just bought this motor and it was a low milage motor supposedly.

All I have to say is DAAAAAAMN!!!! The front rotor bearing was toast as well as the rotor itself. I shouldnt have sold my old block. Anyone have a rotor for sale? Ill be posting pics on how bad it was. And the previous owner said it was streetported but it doesnt look like it to me...I got screwed.

Here are the pics.


















Now tell me is that a street port???? Doesnt look like it to me. I hope that none of you guys here will ever hear your engine knocking like mine had. If it sounds like more of a global knock then a concentrated one, then most likely you will see parts like mine.

Id like to thank all the guys who had tried to help me here on the forum...Happy modding!!!
