You have Dragon, ReWorx, RX Motors and Hayward Rotary.

Jon (88GT-R), are you trying to get business? Now now you know the rules.

Best place is at home, behind the computer doing research. You will learn so much!

If you do end up learning in front of the computer, check out the following link if you haven\'t already done so:

http://www.rebuildingrotaryengines.com/videos/all (http://www.rebuildingrotaryengines.com/videos/all)

I think the guy making these videos is extremely generous with his knowledge when you consider he is actually giving away years of experience and possibly losing customers by encouraging people to do it themselves.

Good luck,

Ant.:Thumbs-up

Best way to learn is to get stuck in!!! Thats how I started off!

oh and also worh a mention...Carl hayward helped me out a LOT when I was doing my rebuild.... and I know im not the only person whom he has helped either...quite refreshing IMO in this day when some rotary tuners would rather see cars blow than on the road to find someone like Carl who\'d like to help people keep them on the road!
So getting stuck in doesnt neccesarily have to be a prelude to shooting yourself in the foot!
