Ever work on a rotary?
If not you better learn all you can before attempting to put it together. From what I've read they are the most finicky engine around. If the main cases aren't flat the end plates won't seal and if it was ever overheated the engine is junk. They become non-rebuildable.
Neighbors kid had one that ran great till he tried hopping it up. Wouldn't run for chit after that.
Best of luck.
