Automatic Miata for a donor?
Any problems with this (other than needing a standard shift center console)?
How's the resell value of a automatic Miata tranny?

Think the hard part is to put a master cylinder, But i think i will try a mustang clutch pedal and a cable...
For the rest you have to do the wiring anyway...

i used an automatic donor car. I bought a set of manual pedals and thats it. I used the auto center console, just put a shift boot in the hole where the shifter assembly was.

No Miata is "too nice" for a V8 conversion...unless you can make a quick buck on it.
I built a "rare" '93 LE into my second build. When people asked me to not use it I asked them if thy were willing to "spare it" by buying it from me for $5K or so. No takers. Ironically, it sold for 3 times that with a V8 in it and is now a whole lot more rare
Let us know what you ultimately end up with,
