I have this HB for sale, shame its a Piston version but it could easily become a Rotary Cosmo

Originally purchased in Saudi Arabia, imported and used in the UK from 1986 then dry stored for 24 years, until recently recommissioned with some professional welding carried out, serviced, and now has a fresh MOT.

What a stunner!

They are extremely rare in this condition. Buyer just has to source a 12A Turbo, now.

Is that what would be fitted to the rotary version ?

Yep. Reputedly the best rotary engine Mazda ever built, the 12A Turbo.

Henman's teeth, I'm afraid. (Or was that hens' teeth?)

They don't make 12A housings anymore either. You'd have to nick one from Kees or from the Frey Brothers. My engine builder is certainly not giving his away. It's sat in his ultra rare Cosmo HB.

Plenty of companies can machine 13b housings down

Wow lots of room for a big Turbo Rotary under there.
It has what looks like a TII rear axle assembly so the rear end would take the power.
