Slant six in a Miata ? Why ???

Actually, the most popular swap in the Miata is the small block Ford. They fit really well and there are several companies that make kits. I've seen one. It was anything but boring and slow. lol
I always wanted a nice Miata and swap in an old Ford HP 289 into it. Probably blow the drive train to pieces though.
See, now that swap makes sense.


Ive got a hudson metro, i think I'll swap in my spare flathead straight eight, and put the drivers seat in the trunk, waddaya think?!?
