Hi everyone. My son and I are starting our V8 Miata project. Looking forward to talking to you during the build!

 

Welcome!

 

Welcome Welcome, plans?

 

Thank you
Thank you
We're starting with a clean, no rust Crystal Blue Metallic 2001 LS. We have the donor LS6 out of an '05 CTS-V. I am working with Tick Performance on exchanging our CTS-V T56 for an '02 Camaro T56. (I hope to have that wrapped-up this month) We have a Getrag 3.42 posi differential out of a CTS but it's an older part number so we will most-likely have to buy the later one. We plan to use this one to position the weld-on brackets on the rear subframe. We are going with the V8 Roadsters NB LSx Package. We feel going with this kit best matches our mechanical abilities to do the project and our shop. (Our shop is my two-car garage) We don't have a lift so jack stands it will be. We live in Denver and will need to pass emissions here so I am researching how far we need to go with the emissions system after the swap. We don't have a deadline but I would like to finish the project this year. Wish us luck!

 

Best of luck to you on the project.
