Dale Smith sent some pictures of what appeared
to be an RX8 engine in a Star Mazda racing car.

Thanks Dale.

Anybody recognize this water pump? Looks like an 
old cast iron pump to me.
The front cover also had a mount for the crank angle
sensor and I know that won't be used on the RX8 engine.
I suspect this is a mockup engine using some old parts
or perhaps RX8 reject parts. The intake manifold does
indeed look like it might be an RX8 part.
Note the taped bolt hole in the rotor housing
for the old style exhaust port.
