About 3 hours.

In stock trim, the 13b Cosmo puts out 230HP according to Mazda stats.



I didn't get the sequential turbos because I'm going to buy a T04R for the motor.



I got the motor and transmission from Rotary Works, Inc. for $2200 including shipping.

They made lots of different motors for the Cosmo series cars...mine's from a JC Cosmo...the same series they put the 20b in as well.



The 13b Cosmo has ports that are twice as large as the REWs.

Looking at that is like going back in time for me I hope you didn't bang up the shifter too bad, you're going to need it for the T2 trans.

Good luck and keep up the progress.

Yeah one pair of arms there has a welder...he welds for Delta...he's going to help me with the exhaust manifold.



Yeah the shifter was fine, thank goodness. Hehe.

Glad to see it come out well.Make sure to put the rubber O-ring in when you swap front covers.I have the joy of doing this tommorow with my motor in the car.
