86 Mazda B2000

My eclipse suffered the dreaded first generation crank walk so while that car is under repair or heavy modification I bought another daily driver. I picked up a 86 mazda B2000 5 speed 4 cylinder for $500 only needs a few minor repairs and it will be good to go, going to do that today. unfortuantly its not fuel injection so mpguino will not work for this. going to mod the mazda for FE. anyone have any ideas. mods that im thinking of are as followed.

electric fan addition remove crankshaft fan
vaccum gauge
ac delete
possible altenator delete or toggle switch( deep cycle batteries in tool box wired in series )
power steering delete
synthetic fluids
diy mooncaps
diy rear wheel skirts
grill blocks
perhaps getting an ecu and fuel injection from a 87 to convert to this if so will be throttle body injection if so diy spacer.

let me know what you guys think. going to be my daily driver but doesnt mean not open to some inventive ideas.
