Hmmmm am I going crazy? I build a Mazda B2200 white pick- up truck for a good buddie of mine. I put a 1988 N/A engine with a Jay Tech Intake manifold and a 4 barrel 550CFM carb. @ first he bought a used 13B, to my surprise the engine was spitting antifreeze out the spark plug holes :madgo: (something common around my way with used engines they all seem to have over 160,000 miles on them) Ok. My friend said "**** Ito I have no more freaking money and the guy that sold me the motor is gone!!!!" I said Hmmmm OK. I have some used 93 FD corner seal springs, side seals springs oil seals, and some used gaskets that I always replace from the Race car engine. I told him all I could do is build u a "Scrappy Power engine" Scrappy power = bits and pieces :smilewinkgrin: @ no cost, he said OK.. I ported the engine cleaned it spotless and put the "Scrappy Power" together. The year was 1996 the first day we put the engine together I took it to my local street drags Man we beat the craps out that engine. my friend bought a house and used the Mazda truck every single day to Home depot back and forth for some home improvement. Man that truck and "Scrappy Engine" was abused. My friend sold the Mazda truck about a year ago. 6 years later with the same "Scrappy Power" engine I saw the truck with the new owner. The guy revvvved the engine for me as I was going by and some blueish (warned down oil seals) smoke shot out the muffler. Man I swear "Scrappy Power" was talking to me. Something like is time for a "Real rebuild" ??? hmmmm am I going Crazy???? :smilewinkgrin: Man I hope u guys had fun with this story.....

Scrappy power... it must just be the engine builder 
For some reason, I hear you can port a mean engine
Anyhow... if you ever feel like making a free scrappy power PP engine for my sand rail (that I don't have), feel free to gimme ring
I've always wanted a B series with a rotary... do you have the engine mounts for something like that, or do you just make em up each time?
