Chop or Not? #2

I'll reveal the answer in 3 days:

Edit: Please don't provide links to sites proving that this is a chop taken from another forum or the existence of real Miatas with V8 engines.

I'll have to say real. Based on the shadows.

Edit: wait a second, I now think it's a chop. And I do realise how stupid I will look if it turns out to be real.

Edit2: oh, the embarrassment...

I'd say real, everything fits far too well to be a chop. The only thing I'm not sure about is exactly how a massive V8 will fit in a Miata subframe

Unless he moved the firewall...

I say real. The photo looks good enough for me.
I've heard some stories about V8's in MX5's, so it is possible. Moreover, I noticed the "Laguna Seca" sticker. Mazda owns the circuit, so that's a bit of a "clue"

Real.

People throw V8s in Miatas all the time, and the LS1 is one of the more compact ones on the market. Given everything else going on in the photo, I find it difficult not to believe.
