23 yr old 5.3 budget swap.
 
Hi, my names Kevin I'm 23 years old. Bought my Miata when I was 20 and loves every second of it. Long story short was gunna do a all motor 1.8 but built it started it and ran for 5 miles and sold it. Then I bought a lm7 from my buddy from a 2002 sub.my Instagram is @ak40kev. I also post a lot of pictures on there. I'm going with
-5.3 iron block
-ls1 intake/waterpump/crank pulley and truck heads.
-t56 tranny
-iron 8.8 rear
-dds shaft and axles(I think)
-custom mounts for everything
​​​​​​-custom griffin radiator
