Just don’t go crazy in first. As someone else said, unless you live somewhere frigid, you’re going to need a front oil cooler too.

You’re also going to want sway bars and bigger torsion bars (930). You don’t need overkill, the stock S bars and 930 bars are perfect.
I agree with Rick White here. best early engine I ever had on a budget was a 2.4 L E engine with webers, and a 901 box with 69 T gearing, It was more fun than a barrel of monkeys up to 125 mph!! Car was a 69 Targa. E cams for a street/ track comprmise.
