Is that using Martin's modified subframe? If it is you may just have made the discovery of the last few decades (at least in the Ford V8 Miata world).

I modifie my subframe like martin did, but on both side to make room for the exhaust.

I install it like the LS swap guy's.

I'm here to share my test, and learn for the guy that run build v8 miata like you Jason

how much of the engine cradle did you have to cut out,to make the headers clear

sebz

hope that help. you have to remove a lot of metal...

Next time i will build one like the v8r kit

So after you cut that out, you just boxed it in?

sebz

yes... but you need old style engine mount. the block hugger are realy close to the block.

Your talking a 1964-1973 302 mount. And your saying a fox body mount will not work.

sebz

yes... that's right.... look at the pictures in my profile.
