Default gauging interest to see if i can go V8 - shitload of stuff

just looking to see if its worth it... if i dont sell EVERYTHING then i wont bother with this.

2.0L 11.5:1 supertech pistons
maruha head gasket
m-tuned rods
act bearings
arp studs (main and head)
+1 mm supertech valves
minor port job on '00 head
Boundary Engineering billet oil pump gears
Boundary Engineering cam gear
ported intake manifold
ebay header + custom 2.5" ss exhaust w/ high-flow cat

custom itb kit (gsxr 750) - $750
flyin miata 1.8 swap kit - $150
flyin miata motor moutns - $75
lightweight flywheel + act organic full-face clutch disk + centerforce pressure plate - $350

electronics:
90-95 aem standalone - $800
plx oled gauge + wideband and ait sensors - $350

$6k without ITB kit.

That's what? 4k for motor, 1k for electronics and 1k for drive-train? (I ignored ITB)


Got the paperwork for the motor?
Mileage?


May be a stretch. (Beast engine, tho haha)

With that much work already into it, whats the need for a v8?
I thought I was already to far into my build to consider an LS1/5.0, and I'm still rockin bandaids haha

$3000 for motor, $1000 for electronics, $2000 for drivetrain, $750 for itb kit.
motor is not even built yet but its going to machine shop early next week. 0 mileage, read first post! v8 because im getting free labor

also, dont forget that motor comes with a shitload of other stuff like radiator, starter, exhaust, etc. thats about $800 on its own thrown in for free pretty much.

i can sell everything separately. just need to make sure that everything is gone so until i have commitments for EVERYTHING, nothing will be shipped or even billed. to make it easier, shoot me an EMAIL (no, not a private message) and tell me what you are interested in.

and my email is urbansoot / gmail [] com

Urbansoot did the exact same thing to me. BE CAREFUL!!!! I'd only deal with him in person and inspect the parts THOROUGHLY before he leaves with your hard earned $$$.

He offered to sell my miataturbo.net decals for my windshield and side windows.

I even offered to give him MORE money if the decals ever arrived at my house, and he offered to throw in "bonus" stickers for being so late on shipping the stuff. I never received anything, and he still has my money.

im pretty sure i refunded you... if i didnt, then im sorry and ill do so as soon as you shoot me a message with transaction number or your paypal address. there are tons of people here who have bought stuff from me and never got their stuff due to my **** up or in rare situations - shipping company (i used to go through local shipping office which closed because they kept on screwing up shipments) and pretty much everyone who was in that situation got full refund when they asked for it. anyways, most of this stuff id rather not ship and its available for local pick-up.

Ive bought a couple things from urbansoot and never had a problem. Him and the guys at his shop were pretty awesome to deal with.
