Engine Rebuild!!!! Port n' Polish?`

Hey, whats up guys!

I want to know if anyone here in the *FORUM* knows or heard of any Good Rotary Rebuilders in the East Coast...Since i've purchased bad motor , im looking into rebuilding my motor completely with the money i do get refunded with. im talking about a complete rebuild including street port and polish and some lightened rotors and a some heavy duty apex seals,(most likely ceramics if i got the funds for it). So i really would like to know if someone in the east coast knows a reputable rotary wizz*.

Let me know ASAP~

just pm me, or even better call me up at my job number. 917 622 4566 , please becareful this is a government issued cell phone so please DO NOT **** AROUND.

Thanks.

**** around = calling your boss and telling him you're using government funds (cell phone minutes) for personal business?

there are quite a few. never heard of alpine motors, but they are located in glen burnie, md and apparently do rotary work.

i believe bryan smith was going to be my instructor at an HPDE i attended, but then i got switched right before the first session.

i saw a few NJ shops listed in that link.

do you not read a thing. or bother to look around.. lots of good info in this thread, and the vendors section.

maybe you should not **** around and do a little research!!!!

i would look up porting and polishing and see what you can come up with. then ceramic seals..

you read just enough to know how to be lazy??? lame.

well i apologize for not searching but my main point to this thread is if "ANYONE KNOWS ANY GOOD REPUTABLE REBUILDERS IN THE EASTCOAST.??"

porting an polishing is something i would like to do but the main POINT is DOES anyone know a good rebuilder in EAST COAST.... i dont know how many times I should write it but do you not get the point of my thread.? Does anyone KNOW a GOOD REPUTABLE BUILDER IN THE EASST COAST. im not interested inseeing anyone elses port and polish or seals right now maybe later of course with out a doubt,but as i SAY i just want to know a GOOD REPUTABLE REBUILDER IN THE EAST COAST AREA.. . and as i read from others, i see CRH is the man to go to, but i want to know if theres anyone that knows anyone in the EAST COAST.
So maybe next time before hopping in you should read what i wrote and what im going for.

even though i sound like an ******* its because you dont make my situation any better nor help ,if so just worse .
and if lazy means taking out the motor 4 times in 2 nights and diagnosing this half-*** motor..... then i am lazy thanks.
and
thanks.

ill search next time.

Hmmm - what do you think you're going to do? Throw the motor in a truck and drive down to the shop then stand there and wait while they build it? I should think you'd just ship the motor to them as it's going to take a bit. If you're going to ship the motor, then it doesn't matter much where they are. Mazmart (Atlanta me thinks) is doing remans with ceramic apex seals. They might have some slight porting options. BHR/CRH can do builds as well with custom requests. I've heard great things about KDR out in PA. A 300 mile driving range doesn't even cover the East Coast. You're looking at maybe Boston to Richmond at the most.

There are actually numerous other shops doing good work but they are mostly word of mouth.

I also recommend getting a motor from Mazmart, You can even see how they do a rebuild LINK
If you need someone in Jersey to do the install mazmart sent the engine I got to JPR Imports in Blackwood. I was happy with both the engine and install done by JPR.
