Nice work, Geir.   Apparently there are at least two different pans
for the 13B (I assume your engine is a 13B).  The ones with the low,
flat nose such as  yours are perfect for the s-beam modification.
Also, it is not notched for the engine mount, another advantage.
Must have been installed in something other than an RX-7.  Can you
provide more info?      Jerry

I think Geir has a 12A Jerry.

I believe it to be a 13B but not real sure how to tell other than the
housings have 13B cast into them. The oil pan I don't have any idea on
what it came out of.

Geir

I stand corrected. I was going on the shape of the oil pan and the fact
the engine ws built by Darrel Drumond. He usually builds 12A's.
Early 13B's used in the RX4 and the Cosmo could have had oil pans
that look like that.
