100 bucks?? bargain haha

Mate with that cash i would get.. 32/36 Downdraught weber, extractors/exhaust and electronic ignition... then if u had some left over get a cam.. but that is a little harder to install..

good luck mate..

throw in an A15 with a mild street cam, with a weber carby as mentioned
i would get the electronic ignition and the exhaust last.
might be able to get it done for close to $1500

You might ALMOST squeeze an L series in for around that much, if you can get the bits cheap enough, and have a little know how...

L series engines getting pretty cheap these days
Radiator
gearbox
tailshaft
crossmember (there's one that virtually bolts straight in)
gearbox crossmember...

better stop spreading evil ideas...

ill second the L series motion EDIT, ok ill thrid the motion then

find your self a rusted out 180b and go to town, swap crossmember lower control arms struts and stuff over

the L series will pretty much bolt straight in, clutch master lines up perfectly with existing studs in the firewall
pretty sure there are some other gearbox mounts under the car for the l series too
