Bill,
You might give Carlos Gonzalez a call (GT Welding, & GNS Racing Inc) a call (352-237-7955) 460 N. W. 68th Ave. Ocala, FL 34482.  Email rx3rx7@embarqmail.com

Carlos packed as just about as much information in the rotary tare down at Tracy's as there is in the Haynes manual.  One thing he said that was of interest to me was not to turn an engine backwards if it has anything over a stock port, you run the risk of hanging the side seals in the port.

Gang,

Does anyone have a rear counterweight off a '91-'92 13B NA automatic?  I am rebuilding my '86-'88 13B with the lighter 9.7-1 rotors from a 1991 13B NA, but it had a manual tranny.  The part numbers are the same for the front weight, but not the rear one, so I need to find a rear weight.

Any other problems I might run into?
