i got 88rwkw out of my 202 on straight LPG. that was with a yella terra head, mild cam and free flow exhaust. and it cost me a FORTUNE to do it.
if you don't mind spending a small countries income for little return then sure - the 202 will be ideal for you.
otherwise you can do the following :
1. an RB30E or RB30ET will fit in your VK using a VL K frame. i think a custom gearbox crossmember may be required due to there being no bulge in the floor of the VK for the cat convertor like there was in the VL. this also opens up options for rb20s, rb25's and rb26s (rb26 needs mods to fit)
2. a V6 will also fit - using a k frame from a VN-VP - it will also bolt straight in no mods required - again - a custom gearbox crossmember would be required here.
3. an injected v8 will also go in there no issues - but again - extracting 200rwkw out of an injected v8 is not an easy (or cheap) kind of feat
200rwkw can be obtained by use of a newer kind of motor from either toyota OR nissan - and probably far cheaper too (and return some sort of decent fuel economy)
hope this helps.
