Hey Rick,

There's not a lot you can do inside the engine, but you might take a look at
my old friend Randy Stocker's page (Hi Randy, if you're out there!).  He's
gone into great detail on just about everything he's done to his CSP Miata.
When I last saw him about four years ago, I thought he'd already done
everything he possibly could, but still found some surprises on his website.
