Newbie Needs advice
Hey guys, So heres the issue:
I live in Ketchikan Ak, its the first city on your way up to Alaska from Washington, Its a small island town, anyways There isn't much for rx7's up here and shipping costs plus car costs is pretty expensive seeing as how it has to ship from Washington and takes like a week to get here. But I found a perfect rolling shell with 80k on the body. Its as straight as can be and the only issue looks like the paint, and I used to paint F/A-22's in the AirForce so spraying down a rx with no motor or tranny will be easy. But I was trying to find a good place to buy a engine and transmission and came across rx7world.com, I was hoping someone would have some info on them and let me know if thats a good choice or not. Also they have all kinds of options for street ports, and apexi seals, I'm a damn good mechanic but know literally nothing about rotarys so if someone can tell me what would be good to get done when ordering a engine I'd appreciate it because I'd like to learn as much as possible before ordering.

Always Bad Advice
More information is needed. It really depends on what you're willing to spend and what you want. Your options are from a used motor (read least expensive) to a rebuilt and tricked out one. If you're talking about a 3rd generation (93-95) you've got your work cut out just installing the thing.
