It will bolt up to the trans fine. You won't be able to control the VVT head with a 99 ecu.

OH wow. I don't think it matters what application the engine is. It will fit a miata transmission. You will have slightly different compression ratio with the BP6D bottom end so you may need a minor tune. Use your BP4W head. Good luck.
