Hi guys, new to the site, please be gentle....
My youngest son is competing (hoping to again in Sept.) in SM in the Virginia area. Having built the '99 Miata himself in his garage from a donor car, he has been able to compete in a couple of races so far. Unfortunately, he has struggled with engine problems (rod bearing issues). The engine (s) were from a "professional" engine builder in the area, not "stock".
Having built karting engines for him for over 20 years (5 WKA Championships), I told him I would look into building him a 1.8L. I have a machine shop (CNC type) along with my brother, and also know guys who have a very capable auto engine rebuilding shop in the area. They are ready to go also.
The problem I am having is finding the SCCA Spec Mazda rules for the 1.8L engines. I DO have the rules for the NASA series, but not being familiar with either group (again, I am new to Mazda's) I don't know if any of the 1.8L engine rules cross over. Can you guys point me where I can find Engine rules I can download and print?
Just trying to get pointed in the right direction before I start on this thing.
Thanks in advance for your help.
