I'm fine with a high RPM engine but generally speaking, 10K is a bridge too far. Even as a race engine, things generally get pretty frantic above 8200.
A few years back,we built a 9200, 3.1 (66 x 100) and it was pretty cool. Ty rods, Extreme heads, 12:1 super light pistons, single row chains, super light crank, simple crazy expensive. I could do that again but I was really hoping for ideas about something we haven't built before.
BTW: are you really suggesting we build a VW as a "cool" project??? Yikes!!
