How much should I pay in the Midwest for a used 13B ? What should I look for? I
want to turbocharge / turbo - normalize it. Are all RX-7 models of a certain age
turbos?

Am  I better off buying an entire car to get all the pieces and parts?

I would go for the complete running car. That way you can be sure you
are not getting ripped off and you can use a lot of the parts.
Junk yard engines could be just that.

Travel around the country if necessary to find a good one.
The best years for the Turbo II are 1990-91 and maybe 1989 I am not
sure
about that. Prior turbos crack a lot more and later dual turbos are
just
not suitable. Prices should be around $2.000 to $3.000.
Not all cars are turbo. What you are looking for is the Turbo II.
