626 [RX6] Conversion

I just finished another Mazda 626 to rotary conversion is the 4th one I have done for a customer [The first one was for me about 25 years ago ] It is not hard to convert to a rotary and they are a good looking car with the hard top 2 door model

This is how I did the front x member mount , I used 2" x 1/4" steel to make it ,where it bolts to rail o fit a crush tube on rail to stop it squashing the rail. and bottom part of mount sits on the radius rod support mount. Plus you have to cut part of radius rod mount at side to fit oil cooler and brace the other side to retain strength
