Whats the difference between the facelift vs. pre-facelift E46's? I never quite understood.

Also, I want to build a Kenne Bell Cobra Miata. Only problem is I don't know if a 4.6 modular would fit between the strut towers.

the balance and weight distribution has got to be all kinds of fucked up with a swap like that

pre facelift > facelift e46

That just answered my question.

I'm still not sure which one is better though.

Look at the front of them. Prefacelift is gorgeous, facelift has retarded lights, and what is essentially an OEM boser, and we all know bosers = gay.

no idea about that motor, but i know a 350 chevy crate will. and as to the facelift, it's mostly in the turn signals. one looks like it has downs, the other is aggressive and beautiful with it's upturned signals.

plus there's little stuff, like hood, bumper, something with the trunk too.

Thanks.

It would be lighter than an iron block 302.

350's are such a garbage motor.

I think I am going to have to go with the pre-facelift ones.

the face lift can definitely look good (i mean they are still extremely similar cars after all), but they just look a little more Japanese styling wise. pre-facelift is more classic styling imo

i don't know a thing about american motors. i tend to avoid domestic cars, for the most part.

dammit.

whoa. watching blue planet, and this pod of killer whales just attacked this gray whale and her calf for six hours before they finally drowned the calf and ate it. pretty powerful stuff to watch.

Thanks.

and way heavier than the 1.6 iron and 1.8 aluminum IIRC

I know that. But part of me wants to do it for the shits and giggles.
