Default LS2 V8 Miata conversion

You can see photos of my "one off" LS2 V8 Miata under construction for quite awhile and some of our various other, past high performance projects too at;

http://s33.photobucket.com/albums/d63/LS2V8Miata/

Again, mine is a "one off" project with everything designed and fabricated by myself and Jeff (Howard Performance) so there is NO KIT available from us.

There's only 3 or 4, LS1 V8 Miatas running in America that we're aware of from all our friends posting across the country and they're each "custom built, one offs" with significant design differences between each one, mine's the first LS2.

This car is a "purpose-built" track toy to be "used hard" on roadracing courses, the street-ability of this car is a secondary consideration.

New news however; there is a new company in Florida starting to advertise an LSX V8 Miata "conversion kit" but I don't have any more info than what's already posted on their website.

http://www.racingconcepts.net/

Hope this helps answer some of the questions.
