FL RX8 Engine Rebuild

I need to know if anyone has a reliable rotary mechanic to do a engine rebuild on my 8. I will do the engine removal and install my self. Please let me know asap.

Thanks,

Rob

Hey Guys,

Sorry to hijack this thread but I don't have permissions to make a new one. That being said, I'm pretty sure my engine has failed on me. When I try to turn on my 8 it barely cranks and the spedometer kinda jumps around along with the rpms. I know the battery is good cause the lights, radio, and everything else comes on. I don't know what to do at this point. I live in small town called Montverde, Fl. The closest place for me to get it towed to would probably be in Orlando. Does anyone know of a good 8 mechanic in the Orlando area?

I don't know anyone to trust on my engine in Orlando, I do know someone that towed his car from Orlando to Rotarywerks here in Miami to build his engine.

Well if there is anyone that knows someone close to Orlando please let me know. I don't think I can get it towed as far down as Miami however. =\
