13b-rew Opinions on simplest way to mount

I haven't been in the rotary game long and I've already heard of a few items being "i got the last one available" or "Mazda stopped making them".At the time, other than the used rew engine that I purchased, I could either get a brand spanking new REW engine from or a remanufacutred one from Mazda. Waiting time was less than 2-3 weeks.

Hey guys! Let me be the first to say it's an honor this thread back to life. But I was curious if anyone had any updated contact info for JR Fabrications. Or would someone be willing to send me pictures with measurements so I can have the engine mount made. Anyone willing to sell theirs?

Hmm well that "looks" easy enough lol will just need to weld some brackets onto the frame. With that conversion engine mount, do you need bushing? (My motor was directly bolted no bushings when I got it) or just bolt her solid?

they are setup so you can put a 13B-REW in an FC chassis with the FC engine mounts, and it will put the engine in the same spot as the old one was

well I ask because I'm putting this into a mgb (had a 2nd Gen center mounted) and just curious if I need bushings when I go and make these custom brackets to replace the **** ones I had.
