That thought has crossed my mind.

Thanx for all the replies.

The car in question is a 1990 model. I've come across this article on miata.net (dated several years ago, FWIW) that indicates a fairly serious potential problem with the 1990 and early 1991 crank, known as the "short-nose crank" syndrome. Anyone with 1st- or 2nd-hand experience with this issue would be appreciated. PM me if you prefer.

There is WAAAAAY too much Miata info on the 'net for one night. I'm going to bed now.
