Hello,
I have been contemplating putting a good b23f bottom end underneath my b21f head with k-jet.

What are the odds of having a problem with the b21f BCP head on top of the B23f block?

I am a little concerned with the possibility of a blown head gasket.

I do have the original b23f head plus an extra spare. They are all 160 heads and the one that came off the B23F motor does appear to have the small coolant passages (compared side by side with a 160 BCP head).


Well, I do have access to a milling machine. I could bore the injector ports out of the B23f SCP head for the K-jet injectors. I would just hate to do that if not necessary.

Anthony
