Help! Please... Need To know Where to find engine code & number....
Hello Guys, Im new here with the 95 mazda rx7... I justneed to ask a simple question, Where can i find the engine code and engine identification number (like VIN but it's carved on the engine block or something?) on a Mazda Rx7 13b engine? Directions would be good... But if anyone has a pictures of it, would be appreciated! Thanks you!

It's on the front of the engine, just above and to the driver's side of the main shaft pulley. It's behind the main vacuum chamber, which must have the alternator removed to be accessed. So in other words, you need to dig in a good bit to get it, which is why I photographed mine when I had the chance.

The numbers, I believe, are only on remanufactured engines - the stock engines don't have a number, or at least a number that's of any meaning.
I think we determined recently that there's no correlation between any engine number and the VIN of the car.

The engine number is on the front iron on the top. This number only keeps track of the front iron though. Rebuild the engine and you can get any number of different housings and side plates and still have the same engine number.
