The b-18 in my '66 130 is nearing the end of it's life. The engine is worn and tired, and last night I found out the head gasket is blown (lots of coolant in the oil and vise-versa).

The plan at this point is to put my money towards a b-20 to drop in it instead of spending the time and money needed to get the b-18 back up to spec. I was planning on putting a b-20 in the car at some point anyway.

I'm attempting to track down a b-20 for the car, and I'm wondering what is interchangeable between the 2 engines. I'm hoping to save a bit of extra cash by tracking down incomplete b-20 missing things that I can take off my b-18.

Anyone have an extra b-20 taking up space in their garage? Shoot me an email.

Thanks as always!
