MazdaTrix for one, what about Pettit, Pineapple? Unless your going with some wild port, Im not sure its worth the trouble, unless your motor is blown already.

Atkins sells lots of base motor rebuilds. If you want it street ported than just add 300 to the price and two or three days for them to do it. You don't need to run a carb with a streetported motor, the regular FI should work fine. They also have motors on Ebay from time to time. Like Rob said there is also mazdatrix and Pineapple. You could also check and see if there is a local rotary shop near you. Chances are they have some rebuilt engines handy.

You could always go with a Racing Beat engine with those spiffy aluminum sides and such.



Of course it will cost a mint but



I've never heard anyone gripe about Mazdatrix.

im not really looking for a rebuilt motor,mine is perfect,only has 76,000 miles on it,i have removed the airpump,removed the acv and installed the block off plate,removed the ac and the power steering and installed a dual alternator pulley,gutted all 3 cats and have a cone intake filter and a custom aluminum intake pipe, but im looking or more horsepower. i would like to go all motor. essentially im looking for someone who makes a 13 b non turbo with a lot of ponies, aftermarket companies say for a 350 chevy motor sell them with say 300 to 500 hp whether there blown,supercharged, or turbo charged, or just all motor. so does anyone do this wth rotary engines? last night on tv i was waching he import drag races and they had 13b rotary engines that were all motor running the 1/4 mile in 10 seconds,who manufactors these engines???????? i realize they would cost mint price also
