OK. Here's my bias:

Get an IRS car with good brakes. Start with good bones.

If you're an air-cooled guy, the point of diminishing return on an engine is a nicely built 2110 with W120 (or equivalent) cam, a good header, and 40 Dellortos or Webers.

The transaxle is more tricky. The highwater mark for a 4-speed with a 2110 is a pro-street level transaxle with stock 1-3 gears and a .93 fourth with a 3.44 R/P. It's not a 5-speed, but it's nice.

If you want to take it further, I'd get a big Type 4 and a 5-speed.

Your mileage may vary.
