Chuck at Maztech has been doing rotary's since the 70's... he knows his stuff. Build a three rotor 12A put it in a Roarty pickup and won some drag racing a while back. also made a turbo 1st gen back in the 80's before turboing sevens was comon. He knows his stuff and has stories galore! Like the guy caught by state partol in WY doing 160 in a 3rd gen and got away no ticket.

Need to get a good tune and inspection of the engine...prof compression check, fuel system check, oil pressure check...etc. I've only just heard of one place in denver...Precision Import Repair.

For anyone who hasn't heard, Jim Berg's gone to Houston.

If you're in Northglenn, use Precision Imports.

Yeah. I've never had a problem with them. He's a bit of an elitist, but he knows what he's doing. So, i suppose it's justified.

I'd say he's honest and they do a good job. I had them fix my Tach, water Temp and Fuel guages plus tune my Holley Carb and fix a leak in my radiator. They did a great job.
