I have a 1988 245 with 300k and a 1980 242 with 135k casting #16322. I'm going to take an engine repair class in a couple semesters. The instructor asked me to ask the bulletin board whether I can take a junkyard B230F, rebuild it in class, then install in my 1980 which has a B21F engine? (B230F uses LH 2.2, B21F CIS fuel injection FWIW).

Either way, what is the highest mileage B230F engine that I should use to rebuild?

Thanks
