People have been putting the 240 dash in 3800, LT1, and LS1 powered Fieros, so the wiring for the guages to work has been done.

1800 extra atop the cost of the motor i hope? lol otherwise i wanna know where you get stuff so cheap haha... 
I would have to say blacktop Sr, better than redtop(because of head), more parts + easier than s14 blacktop. Pretty much the same thing that has been said about it already. reliable from what i hear after being beat on, but that goes for a lot of above motors. I love mine. I kinda miss my KA though, because it helps hone the driver on using techniques and making the most of the power. However, with a pretty much stock sr, the power jump is good, but not too menacing. It's nice to be abled to drift with some beefier tires with ease.

I say for 300-400 with good power band an SR + better weight distrabution for autoX and drift
if you want to go cheap cheap cheap then a KA of any sorts.
Drag racing I would have to go with the LS1 beefed up I would probaly do something stupid like put a blower on it and such
For overall best sound coming out from under the hood an RB25 would do the trick.
