M30 or M50 then cam and chip and maybe equal length manifold and should make 250bhp easy, the 24V engines respond much better to cams/NA tuning then the 12V tho so go for M50 if you can, even tho cam will be twice as expensive you will probly make back what you spent on the cam in fuel over the year with a smaller M50 engine V the larger M30 engine producing the same power.
