I recommend Mazdee's in Pickering. I got my engine rebuilt and street ported there and it runs reliably well. I've also heard good things about Rotary Dynamics. There might be others as well.

As for pricing, I suggest you ask for a quotes. Right now business is slow for most places which also makes it the best time to have a rotary rebuilt for a nice price

No work done yet, but I'm in the planning stages with RPM of a bridgeported rebuild/new motor for my race car.
So far, so promising.

I just got my motor streetported and built by Rotary Dynamics. I went to see the assembled motor this past weekend. They re-plated every bolt, powder coated lots of stuff resulting in it being the cleanest part of my car. I highly recommend them.

I also recommend Rotary Dynamics.

I got them to rebuild my motor in march and they did a great job with awesome customer service. I put on 15k this season alone and it ran awesome.

Take it to BSC Motorsports!!

+1 for BSC Motorsports (Brent Clement). Pricing is great and service is amazing. His engine builds are very professionally done; you will be very happy with the streetported engine he will build you. Definitely worth the drive!

+1 for RPM Performance. Joe and Dan are awesome guys that really have a lot of spirit and drive for what they do. They'll treat your engine build as if it was for their own car.

BSC motorsports

I would recomend BSC MotorSports. I had alot of work done there last season and I look forward to doing more business with Brent. Unlike many rebuilders out there, he has many years of experience building engines for himself, and many happy customers.

Jim at Rotary Dynamics has been nothing but fair and kind to me. Last summer I wasn't even looking to get an engine rebuilt, just to get into an FD rx7 for this summer, and in my research and looking, Jim pm'd me, took me out for a boot in his car, and took me out to a track day. He was more than willing to share his knowledge about the car and what to look for when i start looking in earnest.

When we met up, i got that familiar 'car guy' feeling... you know, just another car guy trying to help out another car nut. He wasn't looking at me as a a bunch of $$$. We did take a look at various engines in different stages of rebuild and discuss the process and what's involved in a rebuild. When i pick up a 7 this year, i'll be taking it to him for major work.. because I think not only did he earn it, but he's trustworthy. (plus his own FD is seriously fast and strong)
