Engine is hydro locked. I am in the process of pulling it out. where or who can get this done.
There is no one local that can build them, your best bet is to talk to rotary resurrection, pineapple racing, or mazmart. After shipping costs are included you can look at paying $2000-4000 for a proper rebuild.

Rotary resurrection right now has the best deal he is only charging $1450 for a base rebuild, not including shipping.

Let us know if you need help contacting those vendors.

UGHHHH that would be so dope... I need a truck!

I'd spend all my money on the truck though...

My 8 would just be sitting with a car cover over her slowly dripping oil.

We do not have a regular event. Just keep an eye out on this section as our meet ups do happen almost week.

I also work @ fort Sam and sometimes get a few local car people together for lunch.

We no longer like Atkins in SARX country.

They are not on our list of approved shops/vendors.

So anyone interested in a BHR under the intake tray thingie? I have a brand new never mounted one I don't plan on using, it's basically a nicer way to fill the dead space underneath the aem/mazdaspeed intake. (as opposed to hacking up the factory box etc.) I haven't posted a for sale on it yet, just giving people I've actually met and know first dibs basically
