If the body is good, everything else is easy. You would not spend a sent on the auto, just dump it & install a manual. Naturally aspirated, the B20 is a better motor too BUT if you did have a turbo B23/B230 'laying' around, of course it will fit along with the M46.

If you like working on 240's, then the 140 will seem rediculously easy to work on by comparison.
