Rebuilding an RE, what kit to buy?
I'm in the preocess of planning out an RE rebuild.
Just curious which kit would be most inclusive of all the seals and parts I would be using. Are there any RE specific rebuild kits out there?
I think the OE 3-piece seals would work best for my app. as I am looking to build a street motor, with nice power in the 300-400 rwhp range.
Thanks,

And, yeah, I meant the Cosmo 13b-RE. Sorry about the confusion.

Some of the RE gaskets can be purchased in copper from CLR Motorsports. The FD LIM gasket will work with the Cosmo, you'll just have to port it. I used an FD gasket kit and had to make my own paper gasket for the LIM. I use the FD's LIM/UIM.
