I would suggest Lowe's Automotive in Sarasota. Mike Lowe is EXCELLENT and has years or rotary experience. Maztech is in Tampa and Jeff is also very good too. You can't go wrong with either place.

Yes, The owner is Scott and my dealings with him have been fantastic. I am not sure however if he does rebuilds you will have to ask him. Very knowledge-full and great work I have received from him

Search for Mazsport or google Scott Glasburn. He is a crook who ripped off fellow RX-8 and RX-7 owners and then just opened up under another name. You have Pettit, look no further.
