CRAZY Idea, Volvo powered Opel Gt 200

Hey guys I got a good one for ya. I just got an opel gt and I'm trying to liven it up some. The stock engine only makes a lame 90 hp, yeah it's gotta go. BUT I've got a 83 volvo 245 sitting in my yard that runs great and I'm thinking about putting it's engine in the opel. I want to get up to between 200-250 hp in this car and the stock non turbo engine only puts out about what 135 if I'm not mistaken. Right now I'm thinking of rebuilding it first of course, and then putting a t-4 turbo on it with and air to air intercooler. The parts I'm having a hard time finding is, an aggresive cam, I found a street cam at idp, but I want street/strip. I need a larger bore throttle body, bigger injectors and a modified computer. So any suggestions on places to find some great performance parts would be great.
