About 6 months ago i Priced and researched getting my engine rebuilt from my 88 turbo 2.
after much deliberation I rook it to a guy 23 miles from my house to get it rebuilt.
After much delay he tore the engine down and it had lost the rear apex seal, and took the others with it. and the middle iron was badly damaged also.
a few months later he finaly finds a 88 turbo engine with 60k miles and a coolant seal problem. I Promptly buy it for 400 and everything is good.
it gets racing beat street ported and cleaned up abit, and i but he seems to have trouble wanted to get it finished. i gave him a deadline of dec 27, and he blew it off.
so today I picked it up fliped him the bird, and left.

my options are take it 500 miles to Kevin like i should have( and i am very sorry Kevin)
Purchase a OsAka motor and put the other on hold or sell the peices

or try to put the **** togather myself, which i would already be doing but i really dont have the space/tools.

heres the pics:
13bt parts

 

Do not go with Osaka, they are a good price but bad engines, basically too good to be true.

I got one from jdm source and he told me before it was shipped that the pully on the air pump was bent from their first shipper and that it was missing the top waterpump neck. Because I'm tearing it down for a rebuild he gave me a good deal and told me if I opened it up and found bad **** he would replace the parts. I must have called him like 20 times because I got burned on ebay bad and did not want to get burned again and he was very helpful. I would definately reccomend them.

thanks alot for the feedback, i think the 50 dollers more i would go with jdm if i have too.

although i would be back with a stock port s4,
the engine i have ready to build is a streetported s4 with s5 rotating assemly. its gonna be nice if i ever get this thing done.

 

You sir, need to pay Kevin a visit.
