I'll go ahead and stick up for the single cams. There is no doubt that its cheap, but if your goals are 250-300 hp daily, the motor is going to have to be built. The Si's only have a garbage B16 anyway which isn't all that better for what you would be paying. Turbo the sohc.

Go look for prices on D series trannies and short blocks. You'll smile just like I did. Hell, i just found a long block for $200 in MIL and a tranny for $250 $450 for complete engine and tranny
