Default Xr3i, rebuild or upgrade??

Just restoring my xr3i cab. One of the last things to be done is the engine.

Should i do a complete rebuild or convert to a rs2k?

I had a escort van with a rs2k engine in and loved it. I no there not easily tuned but 160 ish is enough power for me. If done then id go for the galaxy 2.3 bottom end conversion as ive not seen one done in a xr cab before!

Only thing puttong me off is once the engine is changed they seem to loose there value!

What do you think......
