hmm that must be a canada thing, as a dealer in the us, you can order 1 or 500 and you pay the same.

Yea, I have the video from Atkins about overhauling the 13B which is narrated by Bruce Terrentine. It is a cool video and very helpful. For 30$ its a drop in the bucket compared to what you spend on the rebuild. This was the 1st time I had rebuilt an engine and the video was a very helpful tool. I don't know if you really need a video on pulling the engine, its pretty straight forward. Plus the Bruce Terrentine video starts with the full engine on the stand, and then goes through tearing it down.

Yeah, Mazda Canada also doesn't have to pay the tarriffs that Mazda America has to pay thanks to domestic car manufacturers lobbying US gov't to "level the playing field" in the late 80's...
