1994 Monster Miata, originally built in 2006 by NASA engineer. Build is well documented and have a 3 ring binder full of information, receipts, diagrams, etc. McCully Racing Motors built a forged 331 stroker for this car in late 2012. The owner at the time could not afford to complete a new top end, so the old Ford y303 aluminum heads were reinstalled with a Cobra 5.0 intake. I purchased the car on e-bay fairly recently. When I took delivery, there was excess crankcase blow-by. The car has low compression (65lbs) on cylinder number 7. When oil is added to the cylinder, there is no increase whatsoever in compression, which to me indicates the problem is in the top end, probably a blown head gasket. The engine should really have AFR, Trick Flow, or some other high performance head, in addition to a high flow intake to accommodate the lower end, The car runs and drives fine right now, it just produces excess blow by under heavy load and high RPM's. There is no migration of oil into the coolant, or vice versa. The car is very well built, with Frog arms and frame rails, Ford 8.8 LSD rear end, World Class 5 speed trans, new clutch, new exhaust (with electric cutouts) roll bar, harness, etc., etc. You could not come close to duplicating this car for the money. The lower end of the engine, which is all forged, balance and blueprinted, along is worth several thousand dollars. I think if you were to put a new proper top end on it, you would have two things: a real monster on your hands, in addition to a car with a value of around $20K. I have a car fax, cam specs, and all information on this vehicle, so if you have any questions, please ask. The car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. Thank you. Can provide car fax, if you will give me your info. Car has never been wrecked, no rust, painted once, paint in very nice condition. No air conditional, no power steering, no radio.On Dec-22-15 at 19:20:07 PST, seller added the following information: There are three videos of the car taken by the person I purchased the car from on You Tube. They are accurate depictions of the vehicle, with the exception that there is only 65 lbs. of compression on cyl. number7. E-bay won't let me post links, but you can look for the three videos posted by user name: gt420hp.
