on the road again

two weeks ago i had an oil line failure on my 7 and did not catch it soon enough due to it being night time and raining. the end result was a stuck bearing in the rear rotor, destroyed housing rotor and stationary gear. we also found two broken apex seals on the front rotor.

well thanks to Jesus and Matt C. for parts i now have a ported engine ready to install and drive again. Much thanks my friends, i can once again enjoy driving my 7.

Great to hear you are going to have it back on the road so quick! So many things can go wrong on a 25-30 year old car that you normally don't have to worry about :O( Hope the new engine lasts and revs like crazy for you.
