inter engine swap b21bottom/b230top

posted by  someone claiming to be kgb on  Sat May 5 04:34 CST 2001 [RELATED]

hi guys

i have a blown b230 turbo in a 89 740 turbo

i have a b21ft that i want to put under the top end of the b230 t

if anyone has done this i'd like to know how it ran and if any problems arose

i believe it will marry up ok with little trouble but want to know how it will run first before i do this

89 740t ran great till it suddenly broke a rod (#1) head is ok

the 83 b21ft has a coked turbo but ran good till turbo started to go sour

this will go ahead of a m46 od

INPUT WANTED

thanks
