Monster Miata (5.0 Mustang Engine + Mazda Miata)

[nocki5oh]

This is very cool! What starter do you have on it? And also, how are you making 400rwhp with a 5.0?

[thedudeman123456]

what kinda spoiler is that?



[supratrillion]

Nice car but that wing has got to go

[oddieboi]

@supratrillion If he want's to ever get traction, I'm think that wing isn't going anywhere....

[theone031]

Its like mini me off of austin powers, Short and little but you dont want to fuck with him!

[MarkaRoxx]

its all about power/weight ratio

[thaandiesel]

dont forget much increased gas milage! nice build, alot of people are drooling

[macq1]

I have a 99 cobra and i am looking to buy a cheap miata to do the swap. will take anything that will go from one to the other. then boom even more fun weekend car

[chargr4life]

put wings on that bitch and watch it life up and fly holy shit dude thats a lot of converting is it the same tranny and what about the bell housing

[ShawnSubaru]

Maybe the spoiler is to make it look riced out so whoever tries him REALLY feels like shit? just saying..

[daddyjunkie]

lose. the fucking. wing.

[vampov]

I plan on building one of these soon. I'm going to put dump valves on it. It would scream on command like nascar with the flick of a switch. Talk about a sleeper car.

[69bakedskater]

hmm i want to see someone call this a ricer because it has a spoiler. that car = not rice

[TheEggdude16]

I love that wing, it's sexy

[wslx0195]

anyone know how the heat is under that hood?

[coryistheshit66]

you should be smacked

for not doing a burnout

[HYBRIDhater]

ford has an ego with chevy, because the 5.7 chevy ford had to go up one litre and with the 5.8 instead of 350 "351" the "5.0" yall say is actually a 4.9 and the 5.3 litre ford went up another with the 5.4, but a 5.3 vortec 327 has more horsepower than the 5.4 litre 341, its quite funny ford just has the firing order all wrong but when they completly redid the cobra engine they did good cause they changed the firing order but the firing order for a small block chevy 18436572 vortec is #1 stock HP

[tk7286]

@HYBRIDhater a chevy 5.3 is a 325 not a 327 and a ford 5.4 is a 331 not a 341.

[HYBRIDhater]

@tk7286 ummmmm it depends on the crank how big the heads are, MOOOOOOST of the time it's a 327 and most of the time it is a 341

[tk7286]

@HYBRIDhater ford dose not make a 341 and a chevy 327 is 5.4 as far as the heads go you do not use the Combustion Chamber volum unles you are doing the compression ratio

[tk7286]

@HYBRIDhater 1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3 is the ls1/ 325 5.3 vortec firing order.

[HYBRIDhater]

@tk7286 ls1 EXACTLY

[aeicis]

I trully love miata series they rock.

[LaGenerale]

Is a Lexus V8 really better than an American V8?

[HYBRIDhater]

witch "american" r u talking about

[LaGenerale]

The Mustang 5.0

[HYBRIDhater]

r u saying or asking

[andrewwwcomv8]

no its an american v8. try a lexus v8. is lighter, more economic an powerful.

[CasualA]

nah apparently the lexus v8 is too wide. Bullet have a custom chassis that enables the fit of the lexus v8, at least that is what ive been led to believe.

[HYBRIDhater]

u clearly have NO clue what ur talking about the chevy 327 vortec in a tahoe gets better gas mileg than a mid sized V-6 sedan(do some research)

[MrVanDay]

I know a guy who did the swap with a stock 5.0 in his Miata. The weight is a ZERO issue. The car does low 12s, high 11s in the 1/4 and 0 -60 is about 4 0r 5 seconds.

[heterosapien69]

big engine and small car= mind blowing face fucking power.

[marksranger]

People think, A v8 engine and componets are going to weigh more than a 4 cylinder

[nakternal]

marksranger for a second I thought all these guys talking about weight were idiots.

[igKNIGHTer]

lol..i agree, a v8 engine is a much greater factor than weight in a miata....

[SimpleYetEffective]

Not to mention,with the added horsepower and torque,a few hundred pounds would probably be a good thing for the car's performance

[mx5rush]

my early 1990 miata (first year) weighed 2240 pounds on the scales at the dragstrip... with a little less than 1/2 a tank in it.

[efecevikoglu]

sounds like tiger...nice mx-5!!!

[bigbobbreakdance]

whats this , an mx5 ?? hah fuckin elll

[marksranger]

MX5.0 !!!

[ulcerprone]

hmm. i hope it doesn't weigh 2600 lbs; a stock 1st gen miata weighs ~2200 lbs

[ninjagod1337]

People have put LS6s in Miatas to have it weigh a little more than that (2680). But the power compensates for the increased weight.

And the NA's that weigh 2200 are fairly stock, as well as most likely 1.6l. My '94 M Edition is a 1.8l and weighs about 2400.

[rod1287]

you guys realize that the ls1 is all aluminum right? the motor weighs just about 200lbs which doesnt really change the weight of the motor too much. tranny and rear end though... eh youre still not gonna get up to 2700 lbs on a NA or M1 or first gen, whatever you want to call it.
