free CA + $2500 = SR destroyer

destroyer? hah.
what parts you going to buy with your $2500?
oh, and everything you've said you like about the CA such as iron block and direct acting valvetrain.......guess what? the ka has all that and is 2.4 liters.
i'd recomend only pistons, rods will handle your goals easily. S15 t28 turbo, 3" exhaust, some 450cc injectors, safc, maybe a clutch.

They came out of the closet in 2003 i believe, when most of the KA-T owners said if they could do it over again they would leave there problem plagued POS KA's and do a SR. If only this thread was about KA's someone might care about your opinion.
