My name is Justin. I have a 91 Mazda B2200. I have swapped to a Miata 1.6. I have listed below a detailed list of mods I have done.

91 Mazda B2200 with a fully built 91 Miata 1.6 with trans and more. Has a decent static drop. Will list details below.

Swap consists of Miata 1.6, trans, ecu, complete harness, custom exhaust, custom driveshaft, ecu, clust, seats, and more.

Engine is derived of Aries 11.5:1 pistons, Eagle rods, ARP head studs and rod bolts, Cometic HG, PNP head, Gude stage 2 cams, custom tune, ETC. Trans is stock Miata 1.6 with mild clutch for now and custom shifter. Brake system is stock front and rear brakes, Mitsubishi Eclipse brake master with remote resivor. Cooling it performed by Miata radiator with single electric fan.

Body is mostly stock for now. Shaved tails with Cali combo. Caddi tails. Stock grill about to add billet inserts and Ranger head lights. Have installed custom bed cover. Doing a mold in functioning fiberglass cowl into the hood.

Suspension is custom rear and re-indexed torsion bars. Bars are re-indexed 4 theeth. Rear is 3" blocks and relocated mounts. I shaved stock mounts and relocated springer hangers inside frame front and rear of leaf spring. Top of bed is around 32". It is sitting on 16" Z71's for now.

Fuel system is a beer keg with inline filter and fuel pump. Pump is derived from a 91 F150 4.9 300 inline 6 fuel injected. Keg is a custom setup. Fuel lines are either -6AN Aeroquip push-loc or -6AN hard line.

Interior as of now is stock B2200 dash with Miata seats, Nissan Exterra center console, with Miata cluster and stock radio console.

The paint theme is a military style. Desert Sand paint, black hood, grill, wheels, bed cover, etc. Military star on hood and Battle Field cross on bed cover.

If you have an questions feel free to ask. My photobucket link is listed below. I will add pics as I take them.

Got my missing rear view mirror installed today, swapped the seats out for a better pair of Miata seats, I stalled a new cig lighter port, mixing valve control, drivers door inside mirror cover trim. Now to get a pass side inside trim for pass mirror. I have a non pass mirror one and it's diff. Supposed to pick up some clear corners next weekend. May also be picking up some billet inserts and hopefully my Yota front bumper. Also going to try to get the hood cowl molded in and get a windshield cowl.

a few weeks ago I busted my 1 piece driveshaft because I bottomed out and it hit the cab. I swapped to a 2 piece shaft and modded the new shaft to fit my setup. I also had to redo my fuel line because I smashed the last on flat when the shaft broke. I also resecured my front bumper, installed my billet grill, rebuilt my head(it got broke when loading onto the trailer with the busted driveshaft and exhaust got caught), I also cut out my front inner fenders, and finally installed a radio. I also finally got a set of corner lights.

Was supposed to do the cowl hood tomorrow but not going to be able to make it down. May do my electric fan swap. I have a Taurus electric fan. Two speed. Low speed is 2000 cfm and high is 4400 cfm. Also hopefully I can change my radiator. It's leaking from time to time. I have to pick up a new valve cover so I can do coil on plug conversion.

Also got my speaker grills in and installed.
