search. in a day probly not. + you need knowledge of a rotary to rebuild one. Second bad coolant seals ushaly means over heated and that means new housings that means betor choice is remand motor.

Well, lets see here.

Rebuilding a rotary isnt rocket science, but the Atkins rebuild would help. And what Iceblue is trying to say is.. Once you blow a coolant seal, then you let the motor sit for a while, that water intrusion will trash one of your rotor housings..

No kit, just put it together with various company's components.
