TX Need 13b rebuilt in North TX-OKC area

I've got a blown coolant seal and need to find a shop badly. I've seen a bunch mentioned in threads that are years old, but no working numbers. The only one I've been able to contact is rotary performance, but $5,500 seems abit steep. Any other options?

Can't help you directly but if you're on FB you might want to join the Oklahoma Rotary Enthusiasts group. It's very active with a bunch of knowledgeable people on it. Worth asking there as well.

There are some hack job builders in DFW and everywhere for that matter. Be sure to get plenty of opinions and ask openly on the forums before giving anyone your money. I ship my motors out of state to be built. Locally you should talk to Steve Kan PRT Performance.com, Paradigm Racing and Technology

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll join that FB group and give Brian a call tomorrow. SCCAITS I actually talked to Steve a few minutes after I made this thread. That definitely set my mind at ease a bit. I've still got a couple weeks before I can take the car anywhere so I'm going to talk to as many shops as possible before then. Thanks again guys.

Can't go wrong with Kan! But for Oklahoma I would recommend you contact rotary inspired performance. Owner's name is Brad and he does very high quality work. Drop him a line, I'm sure they would be more than happy to help get you back on the road.

Rotary Inspired Performance moore ok
