Never heard of connecting a Miata transmission to a R16 or U20 motor, so would
be interested in that website link.
Options are limited because the R16 and U20 engines have the starter on the
left. Options I am aware of:
roadster 4-speed
roadster 5-speed
Datsun Diesel transmission, or use the bellhousing to adapt 71B or 71C trans.
Search 311s.org forums for more info.

After almost a year of being off the list I'm happy to be back.
I've got a white 66 1600 that's pretty much stock. I'm considering rebuilding
or replacing my 4 speed transmission, even though it's still working fine.
Is there any information or website out there that has a list of transmissions
that will bolt up to the R16 engine with minimal or no modifications? I did
find a great site that gives details on installing a Mazda Miata transmission.
I'm just looking for what my options are.
Steve
