I'll be visiting a local shop in a couple of weeks that does a lot of specialty work on the rotary. They are well know in the rotary racing world and have experience building drag cars. Two options
they offer are "coolant porting and oil passage porting".
I haven't heard any mention of this on the list and was wondering if anyone has any experience in this area or would recommend either one or both. It makes sense to me to improve the flow,
especially the oil, but I don't want to risk any thin walls in critical areas.
What do all of you think and what should I be asking about these modifications?

Thanks!

Rumor has it the oil temp can be reduced 10 to 20 degrees  by changing where the oil 
comes out out of the block.
