Default new turbo II owner

Hello and greetings I have just recently purchased an 87 turbo II.
this is the frist car i bought. I have owned one other car for the past five years given to me by parents. I live in the state of wisconsin. The car my parents bought me (95 cutlass surpeme) has beena good learning experince as i have done all the matenice and repair on it myself. I am just finshing college as automotive techicention. I have come to this sight to gain knowledge of the rotary engine and rx7 platform, as it has been my dream for a long long time to own one. Now the Turbo II i bought doesn't have the engine mounted, and all the bolts are in a big carboard box, I am seeking a bit of help to drop the 13b back in. The motor is in great running shape i just need help as all the motors i eve pulled were fwd so this is a bit new to me. Thank for any help and I hope to be an active memeber of this fourm.
-Robbie.

I would definitely have a copy of the factory service manual, or even a Hayne's or other repair manual handy.

Welcome to the forum! There are several guides available online, but ask away and we will help you along the way.

Like 1988RedT2 said, having a copy of the FSM or the Hayne's manual is handy.

I have been trying to locate a service manual locally but most part stores around here only carry haynes. Even then trying to find a rx7 manual then is quite hard so i will be using what i can get my hands on. At the moment i am just intrested in getting the motor mounted as i really don't have a place to store the engine. Snice I haven't said thanks here it is. Thank you.
