You don't seems to know how long the ATC or offset for your original fork is when sourcing a replacement. Or steerer tube length. Do you?
If you are stuck with this bike and want to make it go faster, you'd be better off upgrading the drivetrain first, then maybe the fork and wheelset if you really want to get this ridiculous.
With a bike like that, you leave it stock and ride it the way it is.
