found this:
and this:
94+ 1.8 Miatas use the torsen LSD. But not all of them, you just need to get lucky I guess 
Seriously though, I have no idea on how to tell if the miata will have the LSD or not. One method Ive heard is that if it is a 5-speed and has cruise control, it will have LSD. Im not sure how true it is, but every one Ive seen with cruise has had LSD.

First, you want the rear from a 1.8 (1994+) as others have said. There were a variety of ratios used over the years.

Here's the Miata diff spotting guide:

Not easy, but it will help.
Your other option would be to call one of the Miata dismantlers - they'll know which is which.

yeah the stockton pick n pull is rarely good i went there once for parts after a wreck and they had four s5s. man had no money for the intake swap. last time i went though there were a couple miatas though good luck man. if you see a white auto gxl that has the rear end pulled out i got to that one haha.

Well if it's a really early radial where they bolted the crank to the plane and the prop to the engine, then it's a rotary, if it's the other way around then it's just a radial. They did this to get away with not needing an exhaust manifold and such(since they all exhausted at the same place and they just left it open).
A Wankel is still a rotary though.
