Just something to think about

This guy adapted the BMW K100 1100cc motorcycle engine head to the A series and used the FI for it and all. Probably not too expensive if you could find a junker bike motor at the bone yard and do it DIY. link

Neato! Looks too tall to fit in the car without cutting a hole in the hood.

The head looks bigger than the block! How much more performance would this conversion give over an alloy A series head?

I don't know but how much does the alloy head cost?

Keep the A-series head and just add EFI. Google Megasquirt and read up on it. My A-series 1275 with its old fashioned iron head drove 4K miles from CA to MO and back without a problem and got an average of 37 mpg with a turbocharger. The over-tall exotic head is just an unfortunate bit of baggage that came along with the donorcycles EFI stuff. NOT required for EFI or HP.
