Having Engine Rebuilt.. Comment Please.

I'm having my engine redone, ported and polished.. the rotor housings are in real good condition.. so are the rotors.. the side housings.. eh. I'm going to end up replacing the front and rear housing on the motor. Is there a possibility that I could use the higher 89-91 compression rotors in the 86-88 housings.. ?

I'm also having pineapple sleeves installed. Anything else I should do or ask for ?

Go to this site http://www.mazdatrix.com/b5.htm and about halfway down the page, read what it says about counterweights and rotors.

I would take this oppurtunity to:
Flush Radiator
Flush Oil Cooler
Replace All Coolant lines
Have Injectors Cleaned

Pineapple Racing (www.pineappleracing.com) all the way. The only place you're gonna get NEW rotor housings and a 5 yr/60,000 mile warranty. I have one, and it runs better than new!
