The 12A was not Turbo!!!!

And they have plenty of torque, and the A and B refer to the series not the production model.

I've owned 4 RX-7s in my lifetime and currently have a T2 sitting in my driveway, so I would have to say I know what I am talking about.

They never made a 13A man, I think you mean the 13B...

Could You Use Just The Engine and Tranny And Put It In A B2600 And Make It Work?

Yeh you could make it work, but the reason he wants the rear suspension is so he can have irs in the rear of his mazda.

I See, I Already Got The Rear Suspension Rebuilt So I Wouldnt Wanna Do That. Would It Be Easier To Take THe Tranny Out Of An Rx-7 With THe Engine Or Just Use The One I Got And Swap The Bell Housings? And Whats Cheaper?

Since you don't have the tranny I would just swap over the bell housings....I am not sure what would be cheaper?

To Get A Rx-7 Engine Ill Prolly End Up Buying The Whole Car.

Then you have to factor driveline/rear end differences...Thats why for you it would be easier to swap the housings since you already did your rear end.

That Makes Sense, How Would You Change The Rear ENd And Driveline To Make It Work? What About The Driveshaft?

I am getting a 12A dropped into mine. I will run a blow-thru turbo, with a modded 4 bbl carb in the future.
