Not saying anything bad about Mynor, but take a look at a guy named Todd Kaneko.
He has a 13B 1972 510 http://www.superstreetonline.com/fea...car/index.html http://images.superstreetonline.com/...ood_Engine.jpg http://images.superstreetonline.com/...ary_Engine.jpg Its just amazing. I just picked up my own 510 and will be doing the motor mounts and trany this weekend. Should be another fun project for me. yey |

Yes I've seen Mr. Kaneko's 510 it had an REW motor last time I saw the car. He's car is amassing and that is by far the best rotary 510 ever.:shocking: :) :)

My friend is looking at a 510. It will be delivered to my place for 13B action as soon as I'm finished with the white '83 GSL.

Ok i put the 13b in today too get an idea of what's going on. the oil pan wont flip around and do me any good. i think it will just clear the sway bar. The cross member will need too be cut out and ill make a new one lower as low as it needs to be put in.
i will get it out and take the starter and a couple other things off, too make life a little easer. didn't get in enough to see where the turbo hits or any thing. If there are any other rotary 510's any one knows off, and has pics plez post them up. some pics from tonight http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x...g?t=1195779387 http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x...g?t=1195779410 http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x...g?t=1195779425 |

That oil pan wont work. Get a 13b oil pan gsl-se or earlier 13b oil pan. Then flip it back.
Heres some pictures this should give you an idea what you'll need to do. You should have an idea on the motor mount and the trany mount. let me know if there's any thing else. Arnel |
o yes thats a help. the two pics are 510's? i want to get a front cover off a GSL-SE so i have the 4 studs sticking out the front for my motor mounts, an i right saying this will work? like this one for sale https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ht=front+cover
mine is a 88 will that still do the trick? and you are saying get that oil pan too. |

You can see from the orange 510 stock turbo and manifold will work, but you'll have to notch the frame rail. If you look close enough you can see where I notched the frame rail near the waste gate actuator. And if you plan a head make your trany mount to clear your exhaust pipes.

Ah, so a 12a Front cover WILL work... Maybe I'll trade you my 12a front cover for your S4 cover. So than I'm not left with a incomplete spare engine...
But than my engine would have zero means of engine mounts.... hmm |

ok i have an idea, i will get a GSL-SE oil pan and extend the oil pick up tube. for the motor mounts i was thinking about using my stock front cover but where there are 2 little tabs sticking out the front, i will make a 1/4 inch plate that fits on each side of them. Then drill through it and bolt them too it. weld the little tabs i make on too a flat bar going accost, too the 510 mounts that i will mount to the frame rails.
pics of the part I'm talking about using as a mount. http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x...g?t=1196211047 what do you think? |
:)

i think that front cover is an oily mess :)

Thanks for the cool pics. Are you sure that alluminum front cover tab is good for the engine mounts?

USE THE GSL-SE FRONT OIL COVER in the long run and in the future fab work will be alot easier. And if your going to weld on that front oil cover you have in the pic above, you best clean that with Gods hands sent from above. Aluminum welding always has to have a 90%-100% clean surface. With any kind of oil Contaminants, or any kind of dirt from the motor when welding on a dirty surface the filth and grime will get sucked into the weld. The weld it's self will not look good, or even worse yet will look horriable and not work well and will sooner or later break.

to do that swap you need the gsl-se oil pan and the front oil cover.

thats what i want too find out. its going to have a rubber mount on the end of the bar if i do this. so it wont be a solid mount. but will the tabs hold up or break off? any ideas?
If you need to mount the engine and it has to be closer to the front, maybe you should find a spot in the front iron. Those holes for the ps, and ac might not be bad. Sorry I cant be of more help, I've never done this myself, but that front cover is a bad place honestly |
There's already 3 pages on this thread including pictures. If you cant find a gsl-se oil pan locally go to racingbeat website and order it from them/get a 1st gen front cover, make a new front motor mount. That tab is not strong enough to support the motor specially if your are going to drill right through it.
|
Order from racingbeat or mazda trix little expensive but well worth the investment. the front gsl-se oil cover comes with the 4 mounting holes already there.
