Oh noez! I'm at it again!
This time I offer you all the V8 **** that I have. I figured that even if I do finish this car (no matter the configuration) - I still won't have any time to actually drive it. So here it is!
LS1 off of '99 Camaro - $2,000
- Approximately 90k on it
- Total virgin motor (even valve covers had almost no oil residue from inside!)
- All new seals, gaskets, etc all around on it
- New timing chain kit
- Oil pan insert to prevent oil starvation @ high lateral G's
- NGK spark plugs, wires, and other little tid-bits
- Brand new lightweight pulley (misplaced it while moving the so I will have to dig for it)
- Fuel rail, injectors, etc included
- Needs some minor things here and there but all important stuff installed (some stuff is not)
- Had very good compression last time we've checked it
LS1 harness - $450
- Modified to fit Miata. All wires are labeled.
Boss Frog V8 swap components - $2,000
- Subframe (currently on the car)
- Transmission mount
- Diff mount (Thunderbird)
- Clutch hydraulic kit w/ remote bleeder
8.8 Thunderbird Diff - $500
- Diff case off of '95 Thunderbird
- Brand new Auburn Torsen-like differential
- Brand new Ford 3.27:1 gears
- Brand new differential installation kit (seals, bearings, etc)
Of course I would prefer local pick-up in Los Angeles, CA as shipping all this crap will be a ******* nightmare.
Oh, and I'm more then willing to trade for 1.8L/turbo swap. Can't sell the car if it's not running apparently.

I'll trade you straight up for my running setup complete engine, trans, rear, exhaust, megasquirt. Drive over here and by the time you get here I'll have everything pulled. I have a **** ton of spare turbo parts and other miata related items and all the schematics and everything involved with my megasquirt.

I'm glad you had a sense of humor with my reply. Theres no way I was serious. Aside from all that, good luck with sale. If I lived in California, there would be a craigslist ad with a whole miata turbo drivetrain for sale.

Yeah, it's about time I come to my senses and sell the ******* thing. It really saddens me to do this but then again - project hasn't moved at all since I started new business. And even if I do finish it - I won't have time to drive it...

The harness was modded to work with my '92. It should really work for 90-97 and possibly with 99-05 but I'm not certain about NBs. And I could potentially ship all this crap although it could (and probably will) take a while to arrange the shipping and most certainly it's going to cost over $500.

It was built by a guy on miata.net forums. It's a work of art really. I forgot what his screen name was but it had something to do with AK-47. He himself is installing a turbo LSx motor into his NA (90-93 version).
