IMHO, from experience, a motor swap would make you different or unique, but it'll take $$ and work. Even then, you risk whether it'll even come out right.

If your goal is to make power, listen to what others are saying and go with building the original motor, or buy something else.

A swap is a last resort for a powertrain that is either unreliable or unable to make more power.
