Hello Paul,

  Well the Renesis now has a new home. The mount is complete except
  for some small modification. This is a totally new mount as I have
  stayed with the standard sump as it is very light and there is no
  sense reinventing the wheel. I have tried to leave as much standard
  Mazda as possible. The front top mount is where the alternator was
  mounted, Mazda made these so strong you would think it was taking
  the full hp output. My intake manifold is under way and will show
  this on completion. The exhaust has also started with the flange
  being cut. I will have to find a way or a square tube to fit the
  rectangular exhaust port or it will be another fab job. The standard
  manifold cost $500 AUS. The problem with this is it faces the wrong
  direction and can't be rotated as the center holes and port don't
  line up.

I see you welded the rubber bushings brackets to the bell house.
Very clean and simple way of handling the problem. Looks very good.
Now that the rotary is back in production basing the PSRU on the 
stock bell housing looks a lot more viable.

Just use a 180 bend tail pipe and come out of the side of the cowl like
the real P51 Mustang. It would also look like a PT6 turbo prop engine.
