In addition, having dug up some pricing, it looks like upgrading this engine
will cost me almost as much as a swap.

I realize that there's a lot to be said for building on the original engine,
but the reliability of a well-chosen swap would be nice... What are my options
as far as the "easier" choices? Does anyone make adaptor plates for this
transmission (the 5-speed) or will I have to fabricate one?

What is the current weight and size of that engine? Does it rotate in the
standard location?
