Morgan just opened up a new dealership here in Houston. I've been meaning to go sit in one. I guess that's one reason why I'm building a seven, because I'll...
If you plan on using Ash wood from North America don't wait too long, as a disease is spreading at an alarming rate that will eventually make the wood rare and...

I'm new to the list. I've been lurking for about 2 weeks now, trying to catch up on the archives. I'm going with Miata based suspension front and rear. I have...
If I am not mistaken, that Mazda motor was available in the 2002 & 03 pickups. You should be able to find a wreck with a transmission and differential. Ed ......
Yeah, that was my first thought too. Yet on cars without a carb or throttle body coolant feed I don't recall ever seeing a separate bleed - is there one?...
I don't have the diff yet. I've heard that you can use a second gen RX7 diff and 1.8 Miata axles together for a bolt up solution. That makes me wonder if the...
... It all depends on how you drive it. We have a race Miata that puts out 350 ft/lbs at the wheels and delivers the power through big slicks. It's never had a...
I hadn't heard that yet. I thought the newest Mazda trucks were basically Fords with Ford engines. The specific Mazda V6 I have availible is the FWD 2.5 from...
How close is the Suzuki to the Mazda? Did not know they were related, but always thought it was kind of suspicious for Suzuki to develope thier first V-6 ...
I'm really not sure. It's not unusual for Mazda to license their engines - the Miata engine also shows up in the 1995-97 Kia Sephia GS. The Suzuki guys might...
I have a 3.8l ford under my workbench as well but it is a very wide engine. I think it will be a very tight fit. But a nice engine if you can keep head...
Yes, it is wide. I'm hoping that increasing the front and rear tracks to match the Miata suspension will give me enough room. Also the SC version has different...
I thought about using MN12 stuff also, but the unsprung weight ratio would be high. The front spindles locate the upper A-arm at (or above) the line of top of...
