Thanks Angus,

will be at the SEMS meet on Sunday 8th March. Have been doing research on the MAZDA MX5 engine and gearbox, critical question is will they fit into the MKII engine and existing transmission tunnel. I do like the idea of a more modern fuel injected engine, and the MX5 lumps have a good reputation and are available.

Closing this thread now, as have started on specifically on MX5 engines into the Roadster MKII.
