pics of left side. not as easy as rt. side. With aprox. 100# 's up and
down force at prop flange I'm getting twisting movement in horizontal
rect. about 3" inward of weld to vert. rect on both sides. No apparent
movement in vert. rect. , which is where I would have expected to see
it.I appreciate the help from all of you.

That is going to take some major relocation. The muffler
could be moved down under the engine. The back side of
the intake plenum could be cut off at the green line and
the throttle body moved to the front left side of the plenum.
Also the Corvette coolant pressure tank must be moved.

Then use a motor mount on the left side that looks
something like the red lines in the sketch.

That Murphy Rebel is a tight fit for a rotary.
Not very wide.
