I killed my rear rotor housing on my 3rd Gen. Anyone know where i can get a good used one??? I'm looking from somewhere besides thepartstrader.com.

I know this isnt the right section for a post like this but most of you guys have built motors so I figured it was a good place to ask.

Thanks,

Call some of the engine builders and ask if they would sale you one. Rotar Sports Racing is in N.C.

Thanks for the info man. I called Brian at Rotor Sports racing and he's going to see if he can find me a good used housing. REALLY nice guy that doesnt mind going out of thier way!!!! I'll definatly swing them some business.

BTW - if anyone is interested Brian is wanting to buy some wideband O2 sensors that show a digital readout but he has to buy 4-5 at a time. He already has a couple people interested and I might consider getting one as well. Anyway, i though there might be a couple guys interested in that. I think they are going to be $750 and if you want it to data log its $1000. Thats a good deal for the product (compared to what I've seen)

Thanks man,
STEPHEN

You can use 89-91 TII housings if you plug up the coolant passage on the passenger side of the housing.

They would also work, but I think the spark plug holes are in slightly different positions.

Brian's shop put new bearings in my stat gears. They did a great job including using a special lock tight between the bearing and stat gear just like Maza Comp recommends.

The price was about $50 for both.
