Yeah, Paul, I downloaded the Dellow catalog and not much for the B20 besides the steelcase W50. I picked a w58 at a breaker some time back. I have access to a CNC Mill and If I could just find a dimensional drawing for the box's bolt pattern I would be in "fat city". I guess I could use transfer punches and hand fit the bastard. VPD has that project onthe back burner because the T5 is so much more popular. I just hate to cut up the car since my floors are SOOO rust free. Seems a shame to butcher it even if done nicely.

Stripped my B20F core and it turns out to be .030 over in the cylinders and .010x.010 on the crank. Just the faintest bit of wear in the bores... almost impossible to feel any ridge at all after a vigorous cleaning. Parts are the machine shop getting tanked, measured, and inspected. May be pretty straight forward rebuild.

Thanks for the update.

Regards

mike
