nope its just a bolt-on LS2, when i have the cutouts closed it sounds like a stock corvette. Maybe one day ill put a cam in it but first im tryin to get into the 10s with just bolt-ons.

My daughter's pediatrician just bought an atomic orange Z06. It's okay I guess, if you like that sort of thing.

Im looking at selling my 1990 5.0 mustang body as a roller (no motor or trans). Im looking at a 93 miata that is a complete car running and driving for $300. Should i put my nitrous fed bolt on 5.0 in a miata or just keep the mustang? Id say my mustang weighs about 3,400lbs or so and i would think a miata is somewhere in the ball park of 2,300lbs. Ive been watching videos all day of v8 miatas with stock motors running the numbers my cars puts out. Need i say my motor is not even close to stock? As far as buying a kit to put the 302 in im just going to build everything for the swap now that i have another daily driver and wont be needing to rush to get it on the road.

Let me know what yall think.

This may help.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXuRUDjsqmw

He has been fabbing stuff now for a year straight. He's one of the guys in my car club.

Just do what he did, look and read, look and read, look and read, well you get the idea. It should be no problem for a man of your skills.....

You have a way to get ahold of him? Id like to talk to him and see what kind of snags he has run into along the way. If you have a way to contact him i can PM you my number and you can just pass it on. Thanks
