I have looked into this quite a lot, there are always kits for sale on the Bay, if you go the 16v injected route they reckon on up to 120bhp from a standard block. The heads kits you can buy for as little as £100, but when you start adding on all of the specially machined parts to convert to belt drive it tops machining the block to take the head etc. it comes out at well over a £1000. Still a fairly cheap way to double your horses if you have cash spare. Plus you can still tell people you have standard A series engine under the bonnet (it would be true)
