First run with the b6

[muddevil01]

Well after a year with out a working festiva I finally found the time to do the b6 swap and it is amazing the difference I don't know why this wasn't an option in our cars got it done last night and took it on a 30 mile ride today it's nice to actually be able get on the interstate with out having to work the car so hard and the performance cam pull like a beast the only downfall is a little rough idle

Congrats! And Zanzer and I agree that from now on we are just going to replace old b3's with b6's for that very reason. They should have just came with them.

PS: I run demolition derby's myself so we share another common obsession.

The B6 and the Weber carb are the best things I ever did to mine. Aspire brakes come in a strong 2nd though. Definitely know what you mean about getting on the freeway. Congratulations!

How'd you do the Weber? Gen 1 B6 head and B3 intake? Electric fuel pump?

Mostly compacts now, the big iron is getting scarce. I do have a 76 chrysler newport waiting for the right event.

Nice gotta watch those square back wagons they bend bad in a hurry and the newport should be hard if done right glad to hear that there is another derby guy with good taste in cars

I totally agree with you. But I always think all my cars are under powered. Thats why this guy makes me giggle http://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=441727

B6 is where its at, it should have been in baseline festivas, the "option" should have been the BP

[Damkid]

Yup I also agree B6's should have been stock, or at least an option lol

Although I'd still pull the B6 for something bigger haha

Congrats on getting the B6 swap done! I hope to have mine done within the next couple months.....funds permitting.

Thanks it's been killing me not being able to drive my car I've got 3 festys and they were all broken so at least I've got my favorite one fixed with a b6

Yup I love my camed b6 and already have most if my parts to boost it in the next few months. Gauge boosted his but I didn't take a ride in it when I had the chance but none the less I love the camed b6
