Ok, i was musing over the idea of a crazy project car . . .

1.) 1992 Miata w/5.0 motor (i know its been done before - but just think, your miata would be an animal).

1A.) 86 corola with the same thing.

2.) 1995 RX7 with Chevy 350 (since the rotary is crap) then put a blower on the 350 . . . EEEEEPPPPPP :eek:

Whats urz??

Rotary's aren't crap. Just people don't know how to take care of them

I would put the 428 I have in my garage into a Shelby kit car.

MKIV ALL THE WAY BABY....OVER ANYTHING!!!!!!

Miatas with 5.0s don't do too well unless you seriously bulk up the suspension. And you can forget about traction. I saw a guy who dropped a blown crate motor into one that had to take off from stoplights in 2nd gear just to avoid spinning the tires.

If I could have a project car, I'd take a '00 Cobra R and turbo it. If we're talking within financial reason...maybe a 440 six pack Charger or maybe a Cobra kit car.

^^Lol...where the hell would you fit them? Probably wouldn't be a huge deal with the we're-never-gonna-make-it Boss 351 V10 concept they just made, but with a truck V10 you can't even put a hood on the damn thing.
