Mazda Miata V8 LS1 Swap, 400hp, 6 speed

Year: 1994
Make: Mazda
Model: MX-5 Miata
Price: $24900
Mileage: 750
Color: White
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): TX
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive

It's hard to part ways with my V8 Miata, it's easily the most smiles per mile I've experienced. Every time I drive this car I get weird looks, thumbs up, and people wanting to know... what the hell is in that thing?! All new parts are within the last year and 750 miles.The car was conservatively tuned to 350hp to the wheels (over 400 crank hp) and it weighs roughly 2500 lbs. That's the same power to weight ratio as a 2019 Porsche Turbo 911!

Video:


Additional photos can be seen here:

Engine & Drivetrain:
Engine is a GM LS1 V8 and T56 transmission from a 1999 Camaro w/ only 75k miles. New LS7 clutch upgrade with stainless steel braided lines and remote bleeder. Wildwood master cylinder and new GM slave cylinder. Rear end is a Ford 8.8. Sanderson headers with custom exhaust and mufflers. Aluminum radiator with new GM water pump. SLP cold air intake. Hurst shifter.

Paint:
Freshly done OEM (PT code) Mazda Miata white 2 months ago. All windows, trim, seals, and hardware removed before paint.

Interior:
Fitted with Dynamat throughout the cabin to protect against heat and sound. Momo suede steering wheel. Autometer water temperature and oil pressure gauges. GPS speedometer. 6,143 miles indicated however total miles unknown (was installed by the previous owner). Corbeau seats on adjustable sliders. Interior is in very good condition for the age of the vehicle.

Brakes, Wheels & Suspension:
New Cobalt race pads with new rotors. New stainless steel braided brake lines and Motul racing fluid. 15x9 wheels with Hankook RS3 tires. Rebound adjustable coilers and corner balanced. Boss Frog cowl stabilizers.

I have been building and racing cars for many years. This is a professionally built car with no corners cut. It is completely sorted and ready to go. Besides risking a slight loss of hearing, I would not hesitate to drive it across the country tomorrow. Sports car trades considered, no projects.
