daily driven show car..


I don't really think that these two in their purest forms go together. If you're driving it every day, that means in the rain, on broken roads occasionally, in traffic where the paint will chip, the exhaust will corrode (if mild steel), the undercarriage will soil, etc. etc. It won't stay show quality for long.

As for your engine conversion, the easiest option will probably be a T based motor. The TE37 crossmembers and tailshaft may fit your car for a bolt-in 2T-G / T50 combo. If not available, , which is period-style and in carburetted form can go in with minimum of expense sunk in EFI fuel systems, ECU looms and computer, etc. etc. This motor can be built to 1770CC without bore machining using factory standard parts, or to ~1940CC or depending on how game you are with your overbore.

What's your budget?
