Does this work with a VVT motor with its MBSP?

I knew that would come up...I'll have to email them a pic of the one I have and ask. They don't put part numbers on them unfortunately and the paperwork I have says nothing about specific applications other than what I put in my post.

I'm pretty sure it's a little different but a factory bpt (bp26) DOES HAVE a mbsp and it says it'll fit a bpt.

True, it is just a piece of sheetmetal that can be trimmed to fit if necessary.

I'm swapping out rods in a VVT motor, for MTuned rods.
Stand by while I check the MTuned rod profiles vs. stock. :)

No problem...I'll post a pic of the actual profiel shortly. I think I have it in my phone...

Here's a pic

Still have it...

I called Ishihara several times and left a message 2x for them to tell me what would happen if I installed a non MBSP scraper into an MBSP block, and got no response. I don't want to buy it and find out it's a compromise in my MBSP block.

Still here...

I'm gonna call them yet again.

There aren't for Carrillos, are they?

My guess is that you could slightly massage it for clearance on whatever rods you have. It's really not a high-tech piece...

Which Carrillos do you have?

ask Bill from miataroadster. He'll know

I have an MBSP and MTuned rods. This piece won't work for me.

I was actually asking for a friend with a non MBSP block and Carillos.
The Carillos are more slender, so the non-Carillo scraper will have an extra gap - no massaging possible to shrink the gap.

Anyone...?

$35 ?
