Difference Between Replacing and Rebuilding Engine
This might be a dumb question, but I still need to know the difference
And please tell me which one's better and why.

What he was trying to say is even if you "replace" the engine and while it may be a different block than your old one it is still going to contain old parts that have been reused. Most of the time when you rebuild or have someone rebuild the motor they will go through it and replace only the parts that are out of spec. In most cases the major parts, I.E. rotors, rotor housings, e-saft and such are reused. While the apex seals, and other seals are replaced. So to answer your original question if you are "replacing" your motor chances are good that you are putting in a "rebuilt" motor.

You don't need a street port to run 12's. It will help but its not needed. Get an intake, exhaust, and a boost controller. Run 12 PSI and there you go.
