FL Fresh rebuild by Kilo Racing

So my first attempt to rebuild my 13 t2 engine was a failure don't know what I did wrong could be many things I'm guessing not checking all of the clearances properly though I wouldn't say complete failure did learn how to assemble the engine and got it started but only with oil in the intake first rebuild had almost all new internals parts.
This time around I got all new internals once again and the rebuild is going to be done by Kilo Racing in Orlando, FL he's one of the best rotary engine builders and a experienced tuner as well.

What's going to get done

Engine is going to be pinned front to back by Kilo Racing
I got some really good condition 13b t2 plates which are going to street ported by Kilo Racing
Everything is going to be carefully and thoroughly prepped and assembled.
Then finally the car is going be properly tuned on a Microtech LT8S by Kilo Racing


Here's all the new internal parts I have brought everything else in the engine is already new with 0 miles on it since I didn't get to drive the car after the first rebuild.

2mm RA Super Seals
New Mazda Rotor Bearings
New OEM Mazda Side Seals
New OEM Mazda 93 Corner Seals and Springs
New OEM Mazda RX-8 Oil O-Rings which are thicker and better if I decide to run E85
New OEM Mazda Oil Control Rings
New OEM Mazda Apex Seal 2 piece springs
Atkins Rotary Engine Gasket Kit

I will post more pictures of the engine build once Kilo Racing gets started on it hopefully it will be done by next week.

Nice good power for a 12A who tuned it and I might be selling my car too after a little while planning on buying a house soon so need the money maybe I could get half of what I put in.

No not all the purpose of the thread is to track my rebuild by so when I do sell the car I could prove it has been rebuilt by who and when.
Also I thought the members would be interested in seeing a build thread.
If kilo racing gets more business from this then more members will have properly built engines.
