No problem man, so you just want a plain short block? Im sure you can talk to rebuild shops and buy all their scrap parts.

yes, because you can tell a lot more about how the engine works by having a complete one, versus disassembled parts.

sarcasm, actually.

You can't tell jack about the inside of the block, by having an assembled block.

At most you want half of a block, a cut-in-half eshaft, rotor, housing, iron, and stat gear, with a piece of plexiglass on the front...maybe with a crank on the shaft to rotate the rotor inside the housing.

At least you'd want a rotor and rotor housing, to look at.

With the block assembled, you can't even SEE the rotor at all...and what good would that do?

On a renesis you cannot even see inside the exhaust ports.
