Default Engine being rebuilt and looking for ideas

So I finally went out and did it. I bought my dream 3rd gen rx7. Beautiful car until I got home. I went out of Canada to buy it and drive it back. Once I got it back home I started to process of getting plated. First problem is it failed the emmisions test . No biggie right, wrong!!! Brought it to Dave at Mazdees and find out it need to have the engine rebuilt. Basiclly it is burning coolant internally because the o-ring is gone, or on its way out.
So now that its being rebuilt I figured why not get it ported, but I was told I would have to add a few other things to the set up if I wanted it ported. I always thought if you did a mild port you wouldn`t have to add anything but I guess i`m wrong.
Any feedback on how I should go about rebuilding this engine at not to crazy a cost would be appreciated.
Thanks
