That is a 89-91 Turbo two. You can tell by the intake manifold, the exhaust
manifold, the intercooler and the turbo. Note the oil cooler under the rad
while the 3rd gen had them on both sides of the rad in front of the wheels.

Where did that parts manual come from?

There is something wrong with those drawings, because Marc Wiese just
told me the FD 3rd gen has the engine mounting points at the same
location on the engine as the 2nd gen, on the middle housing. Oh well,
doesn't matter anyway, I'm just looking for the dimensions of the 3rd
gen oil coolers!

Marc Wiese is wrong. The third gen oil pan is drastically different than
the 2nd gen oil pan.  Here is another scan from the 1994 shop manual.
Looking up at the bottom of the engine. Effectively the same as the Schertz
beam. Ideal for our purposes as it is right about the engine/psru/prop
CG. These MM forgings are bolted to the bottom of the rear housing
beneath the oil pan. Not the middle housing.

Well, I'm just amazed the Mazda manual has so many errors. I thought
maybe Mark had a 3rd gen car. Those rear mounting points  would be ideal
for that mount I'm building also, since I think using the 2nd gen
mounting points and one at the front is too short-coupled.

I don't think you have a Mazda manual there Perry. I think it is more like 
a Mazda parts list for all RX7's. Perhaps Marc has never seen a second gen
motor mount up close.

The complete 1994 Mazda shop manual is on the Mazda Papers CD in pdf
form chapter by chapter. I also have  a Mazda printed version that I paid
$100 for.
