Re: Mazda miata Engine to mx3 rs?

I think i will pass through..Too much modification and headache And it might wont bolt on in the end.. Its easier with the 94-98 miata bp swap parts from a FWD BP to get the job done. example INTAKE MANIFOLD, windage try, oil pan, thermostat housing, installing a freeze plug, valve cover, side moto...

Re: swapping dohc 1.6 into my sohc. need computer info

Humm no faith in a BP makes sense I have no faith in a K-series or BP-T but that's just a opinion.
