New V8 Miata Project Car!

Post by Brian »

So what do you do when an otherwise clean 2001 drops in your lap with dead motor?

Rocky says: "that needs a V8." :mrgreen:

All the 'vision' on this one will all come from head mechanic, 'Miatomotive Rocky', because this will be Rocky's hotrod. Rocky will cover it here in detail, right now he is just starting the process of looking over all his options for drivetrain choice, diff choice, etc.
