AB homemade Rebuilt Engines

Hey guys, Im looking into buying another Rx8 and i found an amazing Blue Rx8 with a rebuilt engine that has 10k on it. The thing is that he rebuilt the engine himself. Im planning to take it to a dealership and have a inspection and a compression test done on it. if the compression test is good do you think its safe to buy?? any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

If the compression is good odds are it is as good as a Mazda Reman 😉 Might want to ask what type of apex seals were used. Best would be Mazda OEM. Some of the others not so good
