Street Port on reman motor
I recently blew my motor at 93k (on monday), and I am currently looking at options for a replacement.
Currently Im thinking of trading in my core for a REman engine from Malloy mazda for $1950. I also want a very large stree port as I will be running a Single turbo setup. My question is -
Can I reuse the seals in the motor after its been pulled apart for porting. Or am I going to need some new seals after porting to put the motor back together. If I need new seals whick ones will I have to replace?
Any assistance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Give KD rotary in PA a call, they do exactally that all the time - my guess is that since the seals are a resilient "O" ring design they should be able to stand a couple assemble/disassemble cycles as long as they have not been heat cycled (ie untill the engine is actually run a few times)
