I agree with Kurt -- where else can you find an affordable sports car whose engine is just one step away from a Formula 2 powerplant?  That said, of course it's your car and you can -- and should -- do what you think best with it.  But do please recall that with some changes, there's no going back.

As to the engine, my uninformed opinion -- which could well be far off the mark -- is that one that doesn't run is worth perhaps $50-$250; one that runs, maybe $300-$500; one that's been rebuilt by the owner, with full and complete documentation, perhaps $1000-$2000; and one that's been professionally rebuilt by a known competent rebuilder, maybe $2000-$5000 depending on state of tune.
