Would doing such a thing be sacrilegious or (for you Simpsons fans) sacrilicious? I'm talkin' engine transplant here.

I love the 242 models, especially the 242GT although I also like the 242T for its looks, but love it for its power. I think if either came across my path for a reasonable price I would jump on it.

Back to the question at hand: How much work are we talking about here? And how much would the collector value be degraded (or upgraded)? What would a decent B21FT cost me?

Interested in your feedback/opinions.
Bean
