Need Help On V8 Conversion
#21
Have you heard of the Monster conversion for the Miata? A place in California will drop a 350 ci Chevy small block into the miata. Beef up the suspension and drivetrain. Apparently not much modification was needed to the Miata for this engine to fit. I saw this a few years ago (back when RX-7's were still being built).
I just mentioned this because of the comment of the Geo. Anywhere, anytime, there is someone willing to try something new and unusual. If you change from a rotary on an RX-7, the car will lose quite a lot of what makes it what it is. JMO.

ok, now as much as you guys hate to hear this, but a FC with a blown engine and in need of some cosmetics, is pretty much WORTHLESS.
So if the guy wants to have some fun and swap a V-8 in it, let him do it
all this ruining the car bullshit, you guys act like its such a rare exotic
car or something
