240 HP from a 1.5 litre carbureted pushrod engine? Yeah, no problems.
Just a bit of a spend & a 44 gallon drum of Nitromethane & you're home & hosed.

You might need a spare engine or two, fully built up & ready to go if you want to keep campaigning.

OK, silliness aside, the A series Datsun is a wonderfull passenger car engine that can be modified into a brilliant competition engine, ... but there is a point of diminishing returns where costs rise exponentially & service life drops alarmingly.

I suspect that 240 HP from an A15 is probably well into that zone.
