My friend got his off of Racing Beat and it was like 900-1000 dollars. I don't know of many other places but this is a place you can start looking. It came with everything that he needed with the rebuild, except I think the springs on the apex seal(s). We did his engine in about a week which is probably quite a long time since we were working on it from dawn till dusk. I would just go with a professionally rebuilt engine since they come with some kind of a warranty and those guys usally know what the hell they are doing. Good luck, I am in the same boat as you accept mine is Series 5. I think I am just going to get a new engine. Than take care of it and than I will rebuild it the next time through.

www.atkinsrotary.com has rebuild kits for cheaper than rb and mazdatrix. If you do your own rebuld i highhly reccomned getting a rebuild video. also avaliable from atkisnrotary. it is 30 bucks plus shipping, its bruce turintines 2nd video. he tears down an 87 13b na motor. its excellent step by step. i have torn down my motor buy it, and will begine the rebulding process soon buy it. now, i also have the factory manual and the hanys manul to, but the video so far has been the best resourse, i have only looked at teh manual once since i have begun the tear down.
