B-Series + rotary engine?

Hello, rotary engine enthusiasts!

For the past few months I've been wanting to buy an 80's Mazda B-series truck. But I wanted to make it unique. Then it occured to me- a rotary engine! I thought I was the first one to come up with this idea (silly me :D) and now I've discovered that although I might not be the first one to think of it, very few people seem to actually do this to their trucks. So let's take a hypothetical situation: let's say I bought a Mazda B-series pickup truck and a Mazda RX-7 (or a rotary engine of some kind)- how hard would it be to swap everything from the RX-7 into the B-series? I mean making things like engine mounts, transmission mounts, etc. I apologize if you guys here this question a lot, I know what it's like when newbies come to a forum and always ask the same question- "how do I...?" :D Any help you could offer me with this would be much appreciated, thanks!

Hey Jeff, that link doesn't work for non-members of the Rx7 site. I have tried it from two different computer connections.
