99-00 engine
 

hi guys im new to the miata game, im an Mr2 owner so go easy on me, ive been trying to find a good source for miata engines but cant find one, i also noticed how hard it is to find these engines, if you know of any good engine let me know im in the market, and i also have a question. Can i run the earlier engines on my 00 without a problem im a pretty good mechanic so if it is doable i can take on the task thanks guys

Afaik any of the earlier 1.8 engines will work in your car if you swap the 99 head over.

That's a pretty miserable first post. I can't bear to read through the capitalization errors, punctuation errors, and can't really bring myself to deal with this shit right now.

People need to stop posting and start reading

this will never happen

I'm a pretty good mechanic so if you're looking for a poz bottom, I'm your gay.

Welcome aboard, might want to fully introduce yourself in the meet & greet section of the forums. Now for your questions:

Sources for used miata engines (that a quick google search can provide)-
Planet Miata, Parts Group, Craigslist, Ebay, just to name a few.

Yes, your specific engine is harder to find, it is a BP4W and was only in the 99-00 cars in that specific configuration. It's also a higher compression engine than the 94-97, has a better flowing head, and a variable intake system.

Yes, it is possible to run a 94-97 engine in a 99 chassis, just takes time and $$$. You can get your project started using the search box up in the top right hand corner of your screen.
