Need a reputable Shop

Just picked up a 3rd Gen and want to get some little things cleaned up, mainly the motor. I have an electrical/stereo shop I deal with but need someone that works primarily on Rotary engines.

Would like to be within 2-3 hours from Harrisburg Pa, so philly, bmore would be perfect

Thanks in advance
Ian

Dave at KDR is about as knowledgeable as one can get when it comes to the mechanical nuances of the rotary and is pretty good tuner as well. I've heard good things about JPR as well but never been there. People have already listed the major players in your area now you've got to figure out where you want to go.

KDR - Dave knows his rotarys like the back of his hand and you can't ask for a more stand up guy.
