As for making a go-fast motor, it depends on your goal. If you don't want to do a lot of work, do the common intake, header, exhaust and call it good. If you have some money and like the simplicity of SOHC motors, tear it down, sleeve the block and turbo it. But, IMHO, I can't see putting money into a SOHC. I'd swap in a B or K series motor.

The reving problem is usually the AICV sensor. Sometimes a coolant problem can cause the rev at idle problem. But 9 times out of 10 its the AICV.
