    fresh - Got your PM... Unfortunately, seems I cleared out all my "non-show" pictures. I don't have any of the build of any of my cars, which sucks.

    There is a pretty noticable difference though from the B3 to the B6. There's no comparison to the BP though. :-P

      I find this to be an awsome swap, I threw in the comp cam while I did the swap and I must say, its probably the most fun car to drive.. This comming summer I plan on puttting a 75 shot of nitrous on it and draging alot... Mind you, now I need some tires that I will be able to find some traction with....

      Anyone have slicks for sale??? :>

                My buddy Bob and I were talking about that the other day. Why didnt ford make a GT version of the Festiva ? They had the resources. My conclusion was that they didnt think there was any interest ( little did they know) or that all they wanted from the festiva was an improvemtnt to their fleet average MPG.

                    I'd post a couple of pics for you but I don't they'd help much as my intake is of the "over the valve cover" sort. Let me know anyway.

                    Keep up the good work!

                      Here is my daughters B6. I didn't want to move the battery.
                      Aspires and Sways all around, Miata B6 installed, KYB G2Rs just installed in front. Wish for coil overs someday.
