no need to go through all that trouble. the factory gearbox could be used. just swap out the piston bell housing and use the rx7 bell housing
Except that the piston engine input shaft is 1/2" longer than the rotary one and will need to be cut down, or a spacer added between the block and bellhousing.

USE THE FACTORY GEARBOX CROSSMEMEBER MOVE IT FORWARD TO THE NEXT HOLE IN THE CHASSIS, UNSTITCH THE FACTORY MOUNTS AND MOVE FORWARD, FABRICATE A FRONT BRACKET, AND TAKE A 5MM NOTCH OUT OF THE SUPPORT BRACKET BETWEEN CHASSIS RAILS. USE A EARLY 13B SUMP AND A 12A FRONT COVER TO FRONT MOUNT THE MOTOR AND A SERIES 4 RX7 GEARBOX. SPEEDO CABLE FITS STRAIGHT IN. THE TUNNEL JUST NEEDS A BIT OF A LOVE TAP TO ACCOMODATE SLAVE CYLINDER. EASY AS CONVERSION IF YOU CAN WELD.
