I might be willing to help jack daniels, problem is with the time constraints I'm facing currently, Olympia isn't close enough. Working tons and have a trip to Vegas coming up... but I'll think about it and get back to you if you need the help.

If I can find time I'm willing to help or do work for local people. I kind of run a VERY informal rx7 "shop" out of my house/garage.

Never done a full motor, as in rebuild I'm assuming, and you're offering your services for 500 bucks? Hmmm... sounds like a bad idea IMO, but you can do what you want

I'm just saying, what happens if it doesn't start, or something goes wrong in the first 100 miles or so, then what?
