j9fd3s, I'm currently doing two engine rebuilds for two REPUs. If you've got any questions, I'm usually out there somewhere on one of these forums.



I'd like to do a partial bridgeport on both engines. We've got Holley double pumpers which, according to peejay, can be used on a rotary if you cut a channel to join both primaries together. Both secondaries together too.

yeah, i'm not sure what to do with the engine. i'm tempted to restore it to stock (bead blast everything, replate the hardware etc) but we'll see what kinda shape its in

I would consider restoring it.The REPU is a hard vehicle to come by these days and to be lucky enough to find one in that good of shape is worth fixing.Just give the motor a overhaul and get the body restored with new paint and plating on it where needed.
