Yup... you do the welding... I have those two. Pretty simple job, I suspect...
I don't think you can use a Subaru engine - the flat-four is MUCH wider than the rotary and substantially wider than the 90-degree V4 that was stock. You'd have to do some serious body modifications to make it work. The rotary, on the other hand, is mounted to a pair of crossmembers which can be welded to the Sonett's front bulkheads, making mounting a relative snap. Not much need for motor mounts, 'cause the rotary engine is quite smooth. I'm not sure what's involved in the transmission, but I'm so far away from this project at this point, I'm not concerned about it... :>
