96 Miata, LS1 T56 conversion build thread
I've used some kit parts but a lot of building my own and scrounging for used ebay stuff for a budget but quality build.
Just as every build is different I took a little different approach to the build thread too and did it in a blog.

Not a ton of technical advice here but plenty of ups and downs through the process. I hope people will find it meaningful.

Getting ready for the first autox with her I thought I'd see if I could get a 0-60 time. (mostly to see what breaks!) I think if I could hook up I'd be around 3.5 / 3.7 sec or so. The 3rd try went pretty well but I really need to put sticky tires on my Christmas list! Oh and a video camera...

Put up the last post of the year today with a nice video going 0 to 100 to 0. Worst day of the year for sure as she goes into the shed to hide from 5 months of snow. :-(
