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"

I'd say Chop, but I don't have any evidence

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.
