I have to order the spacers as well too! i also need to find a good 1.8 block i so i can throw my head on it and put it in the car and build my 96 block on the side! one of the reason i parked the 96 and started tearing it apart aside from starting the swap is when i dranned the oil i notice some shimmering in the oil and it kinda scared me a bit! before i dranned the oil the motor was making all kinds of noises ( it had a mystery oil leak somewhere and got really low on oil ) so i drained what oil was in it and noticed the shimmering **** in there!

well the shell is almost completely torn apart and i am working out a deal with a local spec miata guy who builds his own engines!
ill be trading the 96 shell for a race prepped short block and a good deal on a getting my cylinder hear refreshed and race prepped as well!
all that is left to take out is the engine and trans, guage cluster hood, turbo timer, soft top and pass side airbag!
