My favorite solution is TURBOCHARGER.

You keep the same engine, same fuel economy when not in boost, more power when needed.
Really the only big changes are mechanical of adding the turbo then the electrical of finding a compatible Ecu for tuning.
Sell the 5.7 to fund the rebuild/turbo

I re-read your original post. No need to get exotic on the rebuild, the stock engine should handle low boost without any issue.
