Just spent 5k on a stock Miata engine, it was 2k difference for 2-3hp, crazy. I was planning on posting the build here, anyone interested?
that 2-3hp is what wins races! Welcome to SM! Expect to redo the cyl head twice a yr if you want to keep up on the straights. Haldeman building the motor for you?

I know little about SM so build thread would be interesting. So is $5k for an engine just a stock one and not with 2-3 extra hp? I thought a podium engine might be more than $5k from what I have heard. I also get the emotional attachment. I remember the drive home from Cresson the day after my black camaro was totaled and for some reason I was emotional.

Drago was charging $7k for a pro motor so I'm assuming the $5k was for a non blue printed unit. 2-3hp is a car length down the straight and can lead to a win.
If you want a drago built car that can win the runoffs it will set u back $40k. And yes we are still talking about a miata.

Not getting answers any where else. Can anyone shed light on why the minimum weight for AI was changed to 2900lbs?
