is it worth saving my 85
Ok here is the problem, my 85 rx7 (12A) is bleeding oil like crazy out of my spark plugs. Have my oil seals died on me or what? how big of a pain is it to rip this motor apart and fix this problem?

Well, first make sure it is not the OMP, Oil Metering Pump. On your car I really don't know how to disable it aside from disconnecting it from the throttle body. It will still inject a little oil but if the problem clears up than maybe it is just misadjusted. When you do this you need to run pre-mix, for info on that please search.
If it is indeed your engine a rebuild kit is about $700 for everything. That means you need to rebuild it though. If you don't feel comfortable you will need to pay someone to do it or order a new engine, about $1300 or so.
