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.

 

I did!

 

take out the keyhole in the rear and rape it. thats what you are doing by swapping that. now a v8 in a geo i would love to see, i think i want to do a v8 in a first gen festiva with some mexicanny lowrider wheels. heheh that would be great

 

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

 

put a Chevy into one of these...that will put some hair on your *****

 

I agree. I'v thought about doing a V8 swap into the vert.

 

i actually want to put a Miata 1.8L with a supercharger into my vert.....stick with mazda

 

yeah, stick with mazda, A company whos history includes producing a $25,000 - $35,000 sports car, that had the paint peeling off not long after purchase.
