Terry,
How about a Volvo engine conversion with overdrive transmission?   That 
way you can actually climb hills without losing speed.
A friend's car has this modification, which is surprisingly unobtrusive, 
and makes for a sweet car.  It all depends on how far you want to go.  
I'll bet that any one of you who drove it and who likes to drive their T 
series car a lot and for long distances would be convinced.
Charlie
