Thanks, Jay. I understand about the need for slow progress. Work like this
isn't cheap! Even buying parts at dealer cost, this B has cost me close to
the price of a new Miata (but there's never any confusion as to which is my
car in the parking lot!)

albeit more cheaply and slower.  Aside from the engine, brake and suspension
improvements, I also went the heritic way by using the early grille and
deleted overriders with Lucas-logoed fogs from Moss in their place.  In
short, I'm trying to build it the way I wished it had been built in the
first place, using what strikes me as the best from each year.  I can't wait
until I'm done, which at the current rate will be another 2-3 years, but my
wallet keeps me at a slow, steady pace, despite getting excited by seeing
your excellent work.
