I'd recommend going with 86-87t vented brakes...much better (cheaper/stronger) wheel selection and you can add cheaper/lighter/better wilwoods to bolt right on. Stock wheel bearings seem to be very stout.
In order to get a 2.3 crank in a c900 you need some sort of custom transmission spacer/chain assembly as it interferes with the transmission case (or mod the case...) 9000 engine would be far too wide, but you could try it. Standard 16v with stand alone or t5 should give you plenty of power. Also I'd suggest a late 5-speed, they seem to have the best internals, unless you get a Speedparts racing 4-speed gearset for mucho dinero.
I plan on being able to swap between dirt /tarmac with some rear spring spacers... not sure about the front yet. Ideally I'd go with Luke's rally set-up with the turrets and coilovers, but I need his assistance with that.
