Here are some pics of my tear down i did on Thanksgiving this engine is out of my parts car with 140k . The car had 90/90 compression and was still driveable except for 2 very small cracks in the coolant seal causing slight smoke at 2k and up. I also have another engine with 90 k but the front rotor shot out 2 apex seals, and seized the 3rd one into the rotor. needless to say ill be using the rotor housings from the 140k engine. all in all the 140 k housings are in great shape. no skuffs, and very little chrome wear. here are some pics of the 140 k engine

well after cleaning the housings today i found a small shatter mark on the rear housing near the very edge so i deemed it unuseable. so im going to have to use the housing i have from my 90 k engine . so 2 engines combined barely make a working engine for me.

Also the rotor bearings will need to be replaced one has bronze patches on it and the other has some dull spots. so these will need to be pressed out. other than that the engine looks fine so far,, ill know more when i get everything thoroughly cleaned and spec'ed

Oh i forgot the engine pictured here has bad coolant seals
