  • how does it ride when drifting? and how it is when daily driving if you do. and how long did it take to do swap it? im planning on to doing the swap my self.

  • the car is very stable when drifting, however due to the torque of the engine it is very touchy when it comes to throttle application.

    its a great daily driver with plenty of grunt in just about any gear.

    it took me about 2-3 weeks total to do the swap, if i had materials and time to do it again it definately could be done in about a week...however dont count on this if you are not fab savvy nor are familar with wiring.

  • yo i just found your thread on nicoclub. for some reason i was looking up vh45 swaps in a miata. (dont exactly want a ls2, and everyone does 5.0 swaps in miatas)

    anyways, did you ever get a chance to install new injectors and see if that fixes the missfire?

    really nice swap. if i had fabrication experience id be swapping one of these motors in the miata for sure. they're light as hell and make more power stock than a mustang 5.0 motor.

  • Issue with the engine ended up being knock sensors requiring slightly different wiring than how it was setup...the sensors I used were from a later model car and required external grounds.

    I did install new injectors and it did smooth the engine out some.

    A faulty cas sensor did also contribute some to the issue, internal seals had begaun to fail and caused it to get oil build up on the trigger wheel...a quick full throttle pull cleared it up rather quickly.
