No not yet. My rotor housings have a small groove I don't like, see attached
photo. I am waiting to see if Mike Harrington has any better ones he
will
sell. The oil consumption on my current motor seems to have leveled off
at 1
qt per 3 hours so the need is not urgent yet. Maybe another month or so.

BTW I reused most of the seals (apex, corner, and steel oil seals) when
I
rebuilt the current motor. The new motor will have all new seals. Hurley
apex seals, stock Mazda gasket set and housing O-rings, your TES oil
seal O
rings.

I dug out a few housings this weekend, do you need T2 or NA? I think the 2 I
saw were 86-88 NA housings. Need to clean them up a bit to check the chrome
and I didn't have a lot of time this weekend. Will keep in touch.
