74 2.7 CIS Engine Rebuild., Modifiy the 2.7-6 engine or keep is stock? Options

I rebuilding my 914 street only use 2.7 6 engine in my 914. I can rebuild to stock configuration or I can modify this engine with higher compression add PMO carbs and twin plug ignition and other goodies. The additional extra cost would be about $7000 over the stock rebuild. I have rebuilt several of these 2.7 and modified them on 911 cars. But, Is it worth spending the extra money doing this when it comes time to sell a 914 with a beefed up engine 4 of 5 years from now. Its plenty fast and fun with the stock 2.7 liter.

Cheap and east is how Nate was going, SC cams and leave the rest alone. I have this set up in my car and it is plenty peppy and responsive. Since you are 911 engine build experienced, the work is super easy and parts are cheap. Worst case, you decide you want more so you pull the cams, change the pistons, and add what other bits you want. My goal was a budget built /6 for a college kid.
