Cool! A friend had a Sprite for a long time and he envied my motor. We always wondered if it could be done. I find it interesting where the shifter landed in the cockpit. Either the Sprite has WAY forward seating (or the Miata way backward) ot the Sprite had a really short tranny...
Interestingly they opted for a 1.8L motor in this car. I would have imagined a 1.6 for the marginally lighter weight and marginally shorter nose to tail length. I am actually surprised to see how much fore/aft room is in the bay of that car with the motor installed. It looks like they pushed it as far forward as hey could just to keep the shifter in the cockpit and not coming out of the bulkhead!
