You will get no advantage from the 5 speed over the 4 except having to change an extra gear. The ratios in high the same. And, like others have said, the rest of that engine is real suspect. It may have some serious hidden damage that you would find splitting the case.
As far as the title. I would keep the bill of sale, title, etc., not title it unless I wanted to use the frame to make a rider of some sort or sell the frame to someone who wanted to license the bike they built with it. If you have all of the paperwork to prove that it's yours, you can sell it to someone else without ever having the title in your name.
Your state may have some law that requires you to title in x number of days of purchase whether or not you intend to license and ride it. If so, there's a way to get title only without worrying about plates and stuff. If you have a law like this and don't title within the allotted time, you might be subject to a big late fee when you try to transfer it to someone else or license it yourself.
