There is an easier way. Sell the C150/2 and convert the money into a C140. 100kts cruise with a c85 and it's a taildragger!
That air2air shot of the C140 was taken from a friend's C150. In climb we were about dead even, both airplanes hauling two adults. In cruise I could really run away from him. I have heard C120's are faster, no flaps, and a cleaner wing.
But I would not argue against your sentiment of taildragger-izing the world.
