Porting Templates?

Hello, I have just decided that i want to street port my rebuild that i now have all the parts for! so all i need is the templates however the only available weekend i have left for this is this sat/sunday, and i would buy the templates but they would not be here on time, does anybody have these templates scanned or something to that effect? i want a rather aggressive street port template!
Thanks

You could purchase the templates from say...Mazdatrix or Racing Beat and then have them overnighted to you. You'll definitely get it to you in time that way.

Might want to do a search on 3mm seals. Can't offer advice myself, but it sounds like you might just want them for the sake of having them? Unless you're running insane boost, the impression I've gotten is that you don't need them. Lots of guys running high boost are using stock seals. Or at the very least some upgraded 2mm seals. Up to you of course, but I think the money would be well spent elsewhere.

Again, take my advice w/ a grain of salt, this is all hearsay.

mazdatrix and racingbeat has templates but their not really great, u know what i mean, because the size of the templates are small, u should check around for more templates else where if ur looking for things like extended street port etc..
