I pulled it :)

The mount in the picture is far from the final production piece, so I'll post pictures once the final part is in the car.

Good, thought I was loosing my mind.

I have a hard time believing the PPF weighs more than frame rails and two extra mounts, one which is fairly big. And the PPF is 1 thing with 5 bolts, you want to replace it with 4 things with like 30 bolts, how is that less things. And you have less room for exhaust where the tranny mount is vs the PPF.

I already have frame rails. I don't even care if it's net zero. The PPF is gross.

Do you have a picture of this tranny mount that doesn't currently exist? Or did you really just want to contend the least important reason for the want?

No, but I know what it would look like. There is a reason I choose to retain the PPF with the T5, and its not due to lazyness or not being able to use frame rail braces.

I have faith that the brains behind KMiata could figure it out. I have this faith because they said, and i quote:

Doing a tranny mount is easier than doing a PPF mount. It takes up more space and is heavier and then you dont have a PPF anymore; none of those previous things mentions were positives.

Is that including or excluding the 99lb PPF adapter?

I've place my order this morning on the Trans,Diff and Cluth kit.HURRY UP WITH THE KIT =)

You forgot please and patience.

PLEASE

Don't worry it's all good! Not speaking for K-Miata, but you can bet that David is hard at work on this and vigorous testing and updates will be shared as they become available.

Yup, it's all coming together nicely. We're finalizing the production shifter bits now. It's a pretty slick setup. Testing continues to go perfectly too.

I also ordered a turbo for the K20 setup yesterday. This setup is going to be no joke.

Count me in for a 450hp miata.

just curious - with all this ability to handle torkz, why turbo a k20 vs a k24? 24 = MOAR!

Count me in 452hp miata

Good question. If you're doing a stock engine setup like we are, a k20a2 or k20z1 can hold the most power. Thicker sleeves and the shorter stroke keep things running safely at huge HP levels. Plus the K20 heads outflow the k24 heads.

Keep in mind, we're wanting to make some pretty big power out of this setup. Plenty of customers will do well with a $200 Accord or CRV engine making an easy 400+whp. But to see around 600whp from a stock block, the k20 is the answer.

Maybe we'll build a sleeved k24 bottom end at some point, and crank up the boost. Because a 1000whp Miata would be hilarious, even if it serves no practical purpose.

Dual hoosiers for each rear shoe to get the power down?

:rofl:

On a serious note, the build would serve as pretty good advertising for your brand!

Yes, we are going to build the first dually Miata.

Huge power like that would certainly be good for advertising, which is why it's not out of the question.
