1980 rx7 - 13b turbo - 9/24/2005 4:25:47 AM    bonno   Posts: 2 Joined: 9/24/2005 Status: offline hi all, i recently purchased a 1980 rx7. The original owner swapped the stock engine for a later model 13b turbo engine. I need to order parts for this engine ( thermostat, water pump etc). The spare parts shop wants to know what model mazda the engine came out off. How do i tell what model mazda the engine came out off? Year model, series etc. Is their a serial number or engine number i can go of or just visual appearance? help appreciated. < Message edited by bonno -- 9/24/2005 9:45:36 AM > Post #: 1
