Well, you are definately goin to loose that "collector car" feel in that it's no longer original. However, "worth" is subjective. I'm sure someone out there will appreciate the work you've done to it and be willing to pay for it as well.

RE: Upgrading a C Code 66

That depends on how original it is now.If the car is completly original,paint,engine,interior,trans,everything,th en changing the engine will definately decrease the value.If it's not all original then it won't make as much of a difference.Keep the parts you change so if you change your mind it won't be permanent.
