I need A rebuild, but here's the dilemma

Well from the last post, 73 RX2 SCAMMED, we know I need a Rebuild.(bad coolant seal) The decision I need to make is. I have a 73 engine with bridge ported housings and 1985 rotors and front cover. From looking around, it looks like 1973 engine kits are like finding a needle in a hay stack. Should I keep what I have and try to find a seal kit ? or should I update or mix and match ? I'm a virgin to the rotary internals, even though I have had many rotary's. I need help fellows, I'm not afraid to do what needs to be done, I will do it myself, like Ultimatejay. hopefully with his success but I need the wisdom of the guys that have made a reliable engine. Thanks in advance !!

they still sell the old rebuild kits for the older 12As. Talk to Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda. He can get them for you.

Or just get a good 12A engine from somebody.....
