Remans and rotor housings are on national backorder until August (?). Mazda was falling behind on Renesis motors apparently.

^ yeah, I think i'll drop a 13B turbo in to a 69 Stingray and post it on the Corvette forum. It's over 30 years old so there won't be any smog restrictions.

^ never heard of that. My receipt shows one year. I'd like to see that, since I don't beleive it. But then, I still wouldn't buy another rebuilt direct from Mazda again.

This could mean no more replacement reman engines??? Only way to go would be to rebuild your engine? If so, don't you need new rotor housings with that?
Yes, kinda a noob question but *knock on wood* I haven't had to delve into that info much.
