A std port 20V will make 350hp easily, the big port head you mention is readily available as it was fitted to the early 150hp models.
As I drive an Audi S3 as my daily, I can assure you, that they defo don't use any oil... I changed mine around 4.5k ago and it hasn't moved of the full mark, fact!
BTW great build, good to see something different..
Have you had a look at the kits they do in the states for these? I think they do a pretty much bolt up kit to install a LS1 (if my memory serves me right).
