IMHO - The dealership isn't always the worst place to go. I have a good relationship with the service manager at the local Roger Beasley dealership, they've helped me out on a number of occasions. This Beasley dealership even sponsors a couple of local spec miata and solo2 racers.



Don't scare people away from dealerships just because you "think" or were told that they just rip people off. There are plenty of local shops shop that will "bend you over with no lube" also.



If you can not complete the work on your own, for whatever reason. Call around and get price quotes from everyone. Ask around at the local car meets were other people are getting their work done. See who has the most reasonable pricing along with having a good reputation.

Rotormotive did exist, Kevin was great with rotories, when he closed up shop I went to his house a few times to work on his boat and his benz, he let me change all the hoses in my vert at his house when I first got it loaning me tools and tips on how to do it, not charging me a dime, he was a gentleman and really knew his ****.



unfortunetly I lost contact with him, so Kevin if you are reading this, give me a call!





He had a supercharged rotory powered Bertram ( boat ) by the way, this boat originally toured the country with popular mechanics magazine or some **** in the 70's I believe to show that a rotory could be used in a boat.
