Hello from Oklahoma. Trying to find a motor and learn all I can

Tldr; joined the forums in hopes of finding a decent bit of knowledge and hopefully a motor for a current project.
The project in question being my goal of rotary swapping my salvage yard 1985 300zx to make a what I've jokingly dubbed the 313RZ, along with wanting to cram in a set of compound turbos to top it off.

Also looking for any shops that might offer seasonal work to learn hands on to.

Swaps are cool but with something like this you really have to ask yourself why. The cost alone involved in such a swap (even just for fun) is so high and the end result isn't exactly anything "cool".

Unless you have "why not" money and you're handy with fab and wiring, it's not going to go well going down this path.

It is definitely a massive under taking, and I don't have "why not" money unfortunately lol. It's just something I've always wanted to do and have been slowly working towards ever sense I found the base car in a local salvage, and have a decent bit of prep work done and some wiring experience thankfully, mostly from rebuilding the car harness from scratch from what little the rats left. At this point I'm really only missing the heart of a RX and it'll be just the hard part left.
