I'll recommend Paul at Rotorsport2 also, plus he's local to you, and not that long of a wait. I can say this because I have a motor built by him in my FD and all I've done is change oil and plugs for the past couple of years.
I'm not sure how much more you're going to save if you keep shopping around and the travel expenses.

Yea I know about Paul, he's done work on my past RX7's and for some reason I wasn't quite impressed.
I already got a price quote from Rick before I bought the car, which is who built the car for the previous owner and told the previous owner that the engine is damaged and will need a rebuild. Because of this, I was able to take off the cost of rebuilding from the asking price plus a little more.
I don't think Ben really wants to take on any other projects right now. He told me that he has a 2 month waiting list and I'm pretty sure for his cost, I'm good with waiting, but I don't know if he wants to schedule anyone right now.
Ivan contacted me back last night but I was at a Giants game and couldn't hear anything so I am going to give him a call again today and talk things over with him.
I e-mailed Larson's Rotary and he got back to me and he seems like a great/professional guy. The e-mail he sent back with prices was detailed and gave me an estimate of cost/how long it'd take. His price is about the same cost as Rick, just a tiny bit cheaper.
