Real World Solutions feedback

Looking to purchase a rebuild kit.

Has anyone used their apex seals before in a rebuild on this forum?

what were the results?

do their rebuild kits come with water seal replacement parts?

Just looking for some feedback on their rebuild kits.

They are priced very competetively.

as far as the apex seals go, mine have withstood insane amounts of detonation (super seals at least). but everybody's got an opinion on them.

Their apex seals are extremely durable, but I would like to see what the rotor housings look like after some decent mileage. The water seals are junk. They don't fit and are known to fail.

Whoever builds your engine should be buying the parts. The bigger cost of the rebuild isn't from the parts included in the rebuild kit. The majority is labour and if one of your core parts need to be replaced (housings, side-plates, rotors etc.)
