well there are people who done the RB install. One of them is a friend of mine here in socal. I will say this it can be done there are some tricks to make it easier but its not a 1- 3 day job like installing a SR or Turbo'ing a KA would be.
That said, Darkraptor does have a good point you could rebuild your KA for around $750-$1200 with forged pistons and good rings and everything else stock. The pistons are the weak link in the KA . The stock KA rods and cranks are forged from the factory.
If you want to play with the SR it can be done . YOur solution is not a simple one. Either way you go you are getting involved a money intensive time consuming project. Be prepared for that. Only you can make your decision in the end. RB's are cool if your ready for a month at least of downtime sorting out, putting it in. Remember this though once your in the 500 hp range your daily driver part becomes more of a reliability issue i.e. higher matinence.
