Default 1990 timing gear issues

Hi all new to this forum and realize this topic has probably been beaten to death more than once but here goes. My 1990 has the usual timing gear keywat problems. I have tried everything including a custom machined keyway to try and take up the difference due to the groove worn into the crank but to no avail. I am now thinking of an engine swap if I can find a reasonably priced engine. I s this a big change. Will a 1.8litre fom another mazda product such as a protoge fit or are they exclusive in the miata. Also anyone know how to reset the stereo code after a battery change. Thanks for all the help Geoff
