v8 Miata Forum - Home of the v8 Miata Conversion

It's a 1996, engine is a ford 5.0 ho (efi) from a 1996 explorer, manual T5 behind it. Comes with a sct tuner, it's has a tune, but you can swap back to the stock tune. I did not do the swap, it was two owners before me, a shop did the swap for him. Car has been set up for autocross per supermiata recommendations with

Extended lower ball joints

Big tubular front sway bar

Rear sway bar dropped (but it, and all stock parts I have included)

Leveled with 200lb driver and 1/2 tank of gas, 5" at the pinch welds

15x8 rims with new 225/45/15 bfg rivals s 1.5 (only a few events on them)

Lots of camber up front (3.5) and slightly less in the rear, just a smidge of toe in on the rears

Raceland classic coilovers (400f/350r lbs/in)

The top and wheels are in great shape, the interior and exterior is kind of rough but nothing horrible. No major rust anywhere. No a/c or p/s. Tach works, no speedo. Window motors mostly gone (but I have spares). Pretty much just a fun car, it's a blast around town. I've been running in SSM (and have two set of magnets to go with it), but it would be an even better fit in the new XS-B class. I would prefer to sell it outright (price is negotiable with cash), but I guess I'd be open to trades down or maybe slightly up for a Nb+hardtop, mustangs, camaros, 350/370z's, corvettes. Basically anything performance orientated as long as it runs fine and has a/c. I also have a 1999 Suzuki bandit 1200s I could throw in a trade or sell with it. Lots of extra parts, extra set of all season tires. I'm sure I'm forgetting a ton of stuff, feel free to message me with any questions or offers or if you want more pictures or videos.
