Just got blown
So last night I'm cruising home from a trip to Flagstaff for starbucks. Me and a buddy of mine are on the interstate on the way back doing about 80 and listening to music and boooom! I look down to check the tack, not a damn thing. So I pull off the interstate in the middle of nothing. I grab a rag out of the back and my friend knowing that 7's are known for catching on fire jumps out with the fire ext.
I lift the hood and watch the smoke lift. It was like watching the soul of my car rise to the heavens. As hes on his phone trying to get a toe for us I think to myself... this is my first time getting blown. So what do you guys think, rebuild or go with the 20B?

First, make SURE you blew the motor. Could be any of a whole number of things that just went.

have some place rebuild your curent engine (if blown), don't buy a re-man. I've seen remans torn down and some of them are really crappy, one had so much sealer put on it that it cloged the oil ports on the e-shaft and fried a rotor bering. Not to say that all
re-mans are bad but why take the chance. (my 2 cents)

Do a search on "20B cost" , or better yet, visit the 20B forums and do a bit of reading, there are lots of ancillary costs involved: https://www.rx7club.com/20b-forum-95/
PS your title is misleading, I was looking for info on a supercharged rotary or something.
