Just drove home my next project. 1994 Miata. It looks like I will be needing front skins. Can anyone point me in the right direction. It's gonna get a v8. Right now It's looking like 5.0. I plan on a lot of reading on here before I start in with the technicals. Thanks

Newbie update
Collecting parts. So far I have an 8.8 irs track-loc with 3.27 gears. M90 supercharger. Need opinion on motors. I currently have a 1965 289 ford a 1997 302 fuel injected with gt40p heads and a 1975 tall deck 351W. I am leaning towards the 289 with the gt40 heads and fuel injection with supercharger. I also have .040 Mahle forged pistons ready for whatever motor I go with. I like the revs and short stroke of the 289 but I am asking for opinions good or bad. Thanks in advance
