The V4 properly maintained will happily run 60-70-80 24/7 and outlast 5 or 6 MG engines. Yes you'll lose some speed uphill. Don't expect blistering acceleration for on-ramps and passing.
If you are not immune to creature comforts you may like a reasonably quiet exhaust, more comfortable seats, and a decent sound system. IMO the quickest single way to gain a few HP is to upgrade to 2" exhaust. This will increase noise some but if carefully done it needn't deafen you.
