Default Built BP on craigslist...

I know the intake manifold will be useless for a miata but I thought there might be some interest here.


Fully Built 1.8 Miata/Protege/323/GTX/Escort Engine




BTW, Im not the seller. Just posting it for a friend.

Thats the most retarded thing I've heard in a while. They are just AN fittings so you can run lines to vent the crank case.

I could be wrong, but 4 ports to hook up to a catch can to catch blow by just dosent sound right. Atleast I've never seen any cars here setup like that.

Its for a catch can, the guy just likes to grossly overdue things.


If any of you are on clubprotege, the guy who built the motor is wht95scort. Do a search for his username and one of the first threads to come up is his engine build one.

This is very common in the big power import world. He probably overkilled it in this setup, but certainly won't hurt!
