I've got a good, complete B21f head with cam and a good., complete b230 crankcase.....block, pistons, oil pump, crankshaft, distributor...I want to build a good engine for a 1976 model 242. The body is great. I'm wanting to use existing parts that I have to put this together. All of the parts that I have are within factory spec. I want to use the b21f head so that I can use the CI fuel injection that is presently on the 76 model 242 if I can use the b21f head on the B230 block. My daughter melted a piston on the original b21 engine, but the head is Ok.....I had it checked. I know that the cylinder bore is slightly larger on the b230, but I figure a b230 head gasket should work ok. Any comment or advice? Thanks Steve.
