Maybe

 

But my Miata gets 26mpg.  If we drive it 15k a year the ROI at 40MPG is we
save $800 per year more or less at $4.00 gallon.

 

But how much is that Festiva engine typically?

Subject: Negative Power Content: Market for 1.3 retrofit kit

 

Since gas spiked over $3/gal a year ago I get lots of emails from my site
about the process to retrofit a 1.3 Festiva engine in order to get 40+ mpg.
I know what needs to be done and what parts need to be fabricated.  SOHC.
65 hp.  5000 max rpm .  Once someone drives a low reving 65 hp engine surely
they will be disappointed. The best 96/97 Festiva engines are 11-12 years
old now and finding a good used one can be tough. Is there a real market for
a $200 retrofit kit?
