Hey:
I found this on a Mazda web site http://www.mazdausa.com/. At least one
magazine had something good to say about the RX7 in 1986. I noticed

their web

page doesn't even list the RX though.
1986
 The Mazda RX-7 is
 named 1986 "Import
 Car of the Year" by
 Motor Trend magazine.
 Mazda RX-7 sets a
 Bonneville National
 Speed Trial record
 of 238.442 mph in
 the SCTA's C/Grand
 Touring Class.

Does any one know if this plant listed below is still there? Did they

make

the RX7 there? It may be asource for info on the 13B. Does anyone have

an

address for it?
 1987
 Mazda begins vehicle
 production at a new
 U.S. facility, Mazda
 Motor Manufacturing
 Corporation in Flat
 Rock, Michigan.

The Flat Rock plant was to produce the Ford Probe and the Mazda equivalent.
I don't believe it ever built engines.  Don't know if it's still in action.
