Default How much?

Morning all just wondering if I was to take my classic to over 400bhp what gearbox would you all suggest I get and where from and how much would I be looking at also should I get a 2.5 lump put in the car if so again where can I source one from and how much would I be looking at to get all the bits needed. I'm really struggling here people as to if I mod my classic to the next level as I really love her but can I justify spending the kind of money involved in modding her and tidying her up body wise etc or buy a newer model a sti or similar have around 4k plus what ever I get for my Scooby if I sell her. HELP

a real 400 hp aint cheap mate. i would probably go for a 2.1 stroker running a md321h, bigger injectors, 6 speed, lots of bits to get probably end up costing about 6-7k

Buy one thats already done. You'd need to throw 10 grand at a classic to achieve a car that makes over 400 safely and handles and stops as it should
