cutting up a classic
If you were talking about an ultra-rare Yenko or something, I would be against cutting it up. Hot rodders everywhere have been taking it on the chin for not keeping their projects stock, but look at the amazing results of their work!
I think of these cars as works of art, not monuments to the past. It sounds like you are creating a car that fits your needs, not something designed for the masses 30 years ago. I say good for you. I also think its cool that you were building a motor at 14 years old. I was still greasing the chain on my bicycle at that age!
