Where can I get my housings/irons ported?

I'm currently living in Eastern Kentucky and I'm trying to find a trustworthy place to port my housings/irons. Most places that actually specialize in rotary engines won't because they only port if they rebuild them.

Wouldn't it be outrageous to get my housings and irons shipped that far?

We DO port used housings.

We do NOT port used housings we believe should NOT be put back in an engine.

Were they new? How would one submit their used housings and irons to Mazdatrix for prior approval to avoid unneccessary shipping costs? Is it OEM spec that's the test?
