I'm in the Chicago Area and am trying to either sell my 2004 6-spd manual Rx8 or replace the engine because it lost most or all compression. Anyone know of a mechanic or someone who could do the swap if I purchase the engine? I don't have a place to store it much longer, so I need to figure it out soon.

I feel for ya buddy. Im in the same boat but no way am i ever letting go of this car. Lol its in my driveway with the engine all taken down and disconnected. Probably pull it out tomorrow.

I'd bet any shop could do the job if you gave them this: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-tec...w-pics-178937/

I say that because a buddy and I did this job at his place using just that how-to.
