I dont agree with the smaller rad and the ram style header, but I sure like the thread build.
By the way... that t-shirt still had some use. |
What don't you agree about the ramhorn? It is the most efficient style manifold for my power goals, I had to go to the half radiator because of my intercooler set-up, surprisingly it holds just about the same amount of coolant as my old Ron-Davis, due to this one being about 1" thicker.
EDIT: That t-shirt does have a good use, it's covering my expensive ass explosed head and cams from dust. lol |
Ramhorn is great.
He doesn't know dick about miata's. The radiator however I'm not very fond of either. I'm sure it gets the job done though. |
Yeah, obviously I would rather have my full size radiator but I don't think I will have a problem at all. I have a big spal fan, and re-route so I should be good. I don't autox or track my car, I use it only on nice days and doing some highway pulls...we'll see.

I would if I could, I have a shortnose crank so it doesn't fit :-(

As long as you have a serious puller fan I don't think you will ever have a problem with that radiator. What are the specs on the intercooler? It looks pretty thick. Also, what is the extra breather port in the valve cover for? Crinkle red rules! |

The intercooler is a ETD custom made piece, it has a 3.5" thick core, 12" tall w/Tial BOV coming off the cold side endtank, duel backdoor design.
We do need more high horsepower Miata's in general! I have no idea what the record is for a 1.6L Miata but I am going to try to have the highest recorded horsepower Miata in the country. I think that once I rebuild this motor I will go to a long nose crank also w/a ATI dampener and billet oil pump gears; the short nose crank has never gave me problems at all and I am running a mazdaspeed HV oil pump. My builder recommended two breather ports for my valve cover, I don't know the reason why but what the hell lol...they're both located under the baffle in the valve cover and I removed the stock PVC. |

Looks like he blocked off the breather port on the driver side of the valve cover soo he added another port in the same breather cell as the passenger side

I was going too but it is painfully close to the manifold.
|
im going to be re-doing my valve cover to have both breather ports in one cell like yours. Very good idea there and hope you dont mind if i steal it! =P
|
Go for it man, shoot me some pictures once you completed it!
|
too much win for one thread!
