I was surfin the net and found this beast! CRAZY!!! Just thought you guys would wanna see this.

and here's the kicker

It's a 5.8L V-8

must be a good power to weight ratio

Looks as if it fits quite nicely

Ok so maybe it's not as rare as I thought, here is a Miata with a Ford V-8 straight out of a Mustang.

You and your crazy stuffing V8s into things.

A few years ago I saw a show that advertised a company out in California that could do the V8 conversion on the Miata. They called it The Monster Miata for obvious reasons. They would put in a 350 ci motor that dropped right in with very little modification. They beefed the drivetrain and suspension.



The engine did not add much weight to a car that only weighed....hmmm....let's see.... 6lbs. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

It's a common swap.
