Default 2l Pinto

Hey all,
Went to a wreckers today and found a 2L pinto, they want $180 for it, Its just a complete engine (block, head, starter, alt, intake, carb, exhaust mani, dizzy) basically just a drop in, tune and go. They said they dont know if it goes but i am looking a pinto to rebuild for my mk2 cortina. Now for the questions... is that a good buy?? Will a manual tranny from a newer cortina fit a mk2 no probs? and with a rebuild thats gonna have a supercharger is it best to space the head and have a low compression engine? flat top pistons,
better cam, bigger valves, ported & polished?
any help is much appreciated.

thanks
