1990 Race Project Update

Miataengine_144 It's been a while since posting an update on the 1990 Time Attack Miata Project, simply because there's been nothing to report.

Several weeks ago the head was removed (as described in Issue #1) and shipped to CustomImportHeads.us, to scrub it, grind it, make some custom cams and get it all ready for reassembly.

Halfway into the job we stopped by to get some details about the process of cleaning up a Miata head. Click the jump to see Rob working his magic in a short video -- you might just learn something.

    Editor in Chief
    Who better to edit Forever MX-5 than a guy that has a garage full of British relics, in addition to an NA Miata with 400,000 original miles.

    Trouble
    She's baaack! This time as a contributing editor so she can spend more time in the mountains with her 8 horses, growing horde of collies and a sprinkling of grandkids!

    BRIAN GOODWIN
    Tech Editor
    Nobody does technical setup on an MX-5 Miata better than Brian Goodwin. Now driving an NC, he'll continue to lay down the facts on track and road tech.

    SCOTT FISHER
    Lifestyle Editor
    Like doing things with your car as well as to it? Our resident bon vivant is here to remind us that the right destination can be almost as much fun as the road.

    Our publisher and resident insurance risk. He's already started to transform a first-gen Miata into a Street Class Time Attack racer for the Redline series.
