Question J-Spec 13B-T Into A 1976 Cosmo

I just ordered a J-Spec 13B-T and am planning on putting it into my 1976 Cosmo, I was wondering if anyone knows of anyone that has done the swap...I know it is a fairly rare swap but I thought I would ask around...

My Rx5 will stay stock as for now.. *s*

I'm not sure how the motormounts are on that enings but I cant see what the problem would be.
Maybe if the front cover on the engine woun't fit the stock Rx5 mount, but that should be no trouble fixing.

I know of an Rx5 in Norway with a TII engine.
www.norskwankelregister.com I's in there somewhere..

Then there is the electronics.. but that's not something I can help you with.. *s*

you should only need to swap the front cover and oil pan to bolt it into your chassis, but i've never had an Rx-5, so ...
