13b=Normally aspirated rotary engine with 1300cc displacement
13b-RE= Twin turbo engine from Cosmo in Japan with 1300cc displacement
13b-REW= Twin turbo engine with 1300cc displacement from the FD3S in the US and Japan.
The 13b means, 1.3 liters with the "b" ports (more like a second generation from the 10a,12a, etc.)
The RE means Rotary and the W means Wankel.

Can any of the major parts from those engines interchange without a lot of trouble? I realize the 6 port 13b probably isn't going to be a good candidate, but what about the rest? The reason I ask is that with the shortage of engines, might it come time to start looking at what can be done to salvage other RX-7 or Cosmo engines for use in in our 3Gs?

mine says 13b like in the pic.
usually the t was thrown on to differentiate but i do not believe it's formally a 13bt.
I would like to see some proof of that since you seem to know more about my car.......

I have seen 13bt used numerous times like in that search but i just believe it to be naming convention used for ease.
I think it's like what other ppl do such as -sr20de-t to signify a NA to turbo even though there was only a sr20det, sr20de. It's used b/c ppl know what i means and is easy yet there was no such engine.
