Looking good!!! Motor sounds like it'll be pretty stout with the new housings and other parts 
Do you work at this place or you just have garage privilages? I would kill to have that kind of workspace!! I'm rebuilding too, except I'm having someone else do the hard work. My next motor I would like to do myself though

it's a mazda/hyundai dealership. work on all mazda's. i'm the only one that likes to work on the rotaries. the rest of them hate em. b/c they know nothing about them. past week building my engine and the day i put it together the whole shop stopped working and watched me and a Senior Technician (who's been there for 29 years and actually is the only other person that likes rotaries and CAN actually work on them) slap together my engine. they all like we've been here 10+ years and NEVER seen anyone rebuild one. wow.... haha. i felt like a teacher in school even though it's my first rotary build up. Kinda Funny. any of ya'll in houston need help with parts or info holler at me. i can help you out. i have full Shop Manual, Original Service Highlights on the Rx7, and a few other things. i'm Trying to sneak out the service highlights, so i can PDF it for ya'll. It gives you more information then the whole Shop Manual Does, it's pretty bad *** for diagnosing... especially for the stock ecu guys. really helps alot. so gimme time and i'll have it. =-)
