Picked up at 93 Miata I am turning in to a lsx powered street/track car, just dropping all to get advice from others.

Here is my mess named "Thing 1"




Thanks guys,
Zac

Yea Ive got a 5.3 that I stripped down, throwing on a set of factory 243 heads with springs and ti retainers, a comp cams xr281hr cam, edelbrock performer intake with a lsx ignition controller, and a holley 750 carburetor.

Should be a healthy enough combo for 400 whp.

Hoping to use a built GM T5 transmission vs the t56.

Should be fun.
