Pineapple Racing

I am planning on buying an RX-7 with either an engine with alot of miles or a blown engine. I have heard a ton of good things about Pineapple Racing, but can you buy new engines from them? On the site it seems like they only do rebuilds. If i am wrong, what would the price of a new engine be and what is the HP difference between their small and large street port. Also with a street port, will i need a new ECU to compensate for the added power.

You can always e-mail Rob, he usually sends a reply pretty quickly. Last time I checked he didn't have any FD motors in, but was looking for one.

Um no offense here, but if your worried about price of a 10 minute long distance phone call, you probably shouldn't buy a FD (let alone a ragged out one)

Just remember, there is a bit of a wait for him. I know he was catching up last time I talked to him, but you'll have to have some patience if you want one of the best engine builders out there. CJ
