I'm with Larry...what you need is more power. The quickest, easiest, cure is to stroke that 1835cc with an 82mm crankshaft and make it a 2180cc, especially if you're going to rebuild it anyway. 1835cc may work for pilot only if you don't mind a slow climb rate, but if you ever want to carry a passenger on a hot day, you'd be a lot safer with a 2180cc. GPASC at http://www.greatplainsas.com/ has everything you'd need to do it yourself. If you want a good performer with a passenger, stuff a Corvair in it, but the changes in everything from engine mount to cowling will set you back substantially in terms of time...
