MG Midget Madness (i.e. It was either this or kill it with fire)

That is one of the good points to this swap Ray.

The tires are the new ones I bought for the 79, They were OK with this engine, but they did break loose pretty easy on the RX7. I'm hoping to get it down to 1500lbs (800lbs lighter than the 79 RX7) which will only make matters worse, but fun. Now if I can only figure out how to get the waffles on there.

:edit: engine and trans are back out. I may end up using my Weber 45 side draft as it would be simpler, but I really like the reliability and ease of the stock fuel injection. I've heard that the stock FI intake will hit the hood, I'll have to try it and see for myself.

Then just drop everything lower and further back a la Brian style.
