Video: Atkins or RotaryAvation?

I'm about to say screw it and rebuild my own 89 N/A. Which one of these videos should I get?

I believe they're both the same video.. you're talking about "Bruce Turrintine's(sp?) How to Overhaul Your Madza 13b" right?

I got the Bruce T video and it's excellent... never saw the one with david atkins, so I can't speak for it. BUT, between me and my buddy, there are five rotaries built with that video and no problems yet!!

Atkins has a new video out and I heard its "only" an hour long. I don't have that video so I can't comment but I do have the Bruce Turrentine video from Rotary Aviation and its well over 2 hrs and 30 min or so I think. I think the time in the video is used up well and he goes into great detail with the rebuild.

That was my logic too.. I got mine on CDRom, and took my laptop down to the cellar, where i was rebuilding my engine.. "Play along at home, Kids! You TOO can rebuild your Rotary Engine!"
