Converting a B230 with a carburettor to a B230F with Regina FI

I know this sounds weird but here it goes. I have a complete set of a Regina FI plus the ignition system,intake manifold,and all the sensors, fuel pump and also the engine wiring plus the dash wiring.

It was taken from a 1991 Volvo 740 here in the US. I was parting out my car for some reasons. Then later on I decided that I wanted to buy a Volvo here in Malaysia, with either a B230 auto with a carburettor(or a Kjet) and convert it to a Regina FI system.(I brought all the components to Malaysia)

My problem now is that I do not have the Regina/renix flywheel with me. I know that most of the Malaysian Volvos are equipped with Bosch EZK ignition systems,so the flywheel is different than Renix.

My question is, is the Renix flywheel(automatic) used in maybe B200K/B230K same as the Regina(USA)auto? On top of that, Volvos with automatic trans. comes in either BW55(b4 1985) or AW70/71(1985 or later uses this).Can I fit a Regina B230F on a B23 with a BW55 auto trans? Will the Renix auto flywheel fit?


The reason that I am doing this is I do not have to spend that much money by buying a whole set of B230F(engine and trans,which can be expensive in Malaysia).

Thank you very much for your time.
