Can You puchase say a reman engine then street port it wouthout rebuilding it?

 

Yes and No - you can buy a MAZDA Reman motor and then have it street ported. However you do have to dissasemble the engine to do so - but technically this would not be another "rebuild" because you would reuse all the same parts and no other machining would be required. KD Rotary works with a MAZDA dealer in PA (Malloy Mazda ) to do exactly that, they start w/ a MAZDA Reman and the build it up to your spec's.

 

thanks for the info. Now all i have to do is find the cheapest way to get a street ported reman engine.

 

Actually Malloy mazda is in Woodbridge VA (south of DC) 3 hour drive to KD from there.

 

Thanks I know KD is in PA! & thought Malloy was also.

 

I thought that if you opened the reman that you voided the warrenty(sp?)..Why would you get a reman then rebuild it?? Why not just send in yours and get it rebuilt that way??

 

Because a reman (most anyway) have all new internals for like $1900 - but if you send yours to be rebuilt then you might have to replace the rotor housings which can cost like $600 a piece - your better off starting with a reman and having it streetported. I know Malloy has a very good reputation for remans - at the time of my engine build, Dave said that only one engine out of like 30 Malloy remans had a used part in it - I think other places have been known to install used parts in a reman.

 

Yeah I would feel better startin with a reman vs. rebulding mine, not really worried about voiding the warranty, Im pretty sure I would do that weather I pull it apart or not .

Ok this is what i got so far 1900 -2000 for reman, how much to street port?

 

Depending on the shop, a Street port aka Extend port is $300-$400.

 

Remember that is addition to the LABOR to tear it down and reassemble it.

 

So am i lookin at around 2500?
