The idea isn't necessarily completely a dead one - people use SC14s on Buick V6's (CRS do a kit for it), and give them a bit of a kick in the guts, so I can't see that a 202, with the cylinder head that might as well be welded shut, is going to swallow far too much air. My first suggestion - burn the 202! My next suggestion - give it a go. I'd suggest you do a couple of things first:
1. Make sure your 202 is as healthy as a 202 can possibly be
2. Hows your exhaust? The standard manifold and exhaust system is ROTTEN, ditch this stuff first and be surprised at the difference. In fact, I might be a little bit wild here, and suggest you grab an 'EFI' 202 with the enormous inlet runners (the whole engine, electrics, etc.) and slot that in, with a decent exhaust and a bit bigger cam. You'll probably find it easier, cheaper, and probably do what you want. If not? Supercharge that instead! You should be able to pick one up in good order for a few hundred $, and may even be able to sell off your old motor to some poor sap.
3. Make sure your ignition is up to it - forget points. Pinch an electronic dizzy from an EFI VK (carb'd ones used EST), and get it altered a little to suit its new job.
It shouldn't be too hard to do if you're any good at making bits'n'pieces, and show us some pics if you decide to have a go.
