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.

Dang....

monster miata sells kits, minus the engine

Flying miata kit would be faster no?

that car has to be hard to drive........i mean with 130hp they have enough power to go quick through the corners. with a V8 in it you need like 12" rear wheels !



i can only imagine

RHD !!!
