You lucked out and scored an HF. Being super jealous as they were never sold up here, I will say that since you already have one of the icons of high FE (just look at the top 10 gasoline powered cars on this site), that you should consider leaving the current drivetrain in place. If I was in your shoes, I would spend my time and money on maximizing what a team of engineers with a big budget and the intention of making a high FE vehicle already gave you as a starting point. If you had gotten a decent CRX Si for that cheap, then a VX swap etc would be a great direction to look into. But man you found uranium at potash pricing!
