The 1988+ oil filter adapter won't work on the B23FT without building a new turbo oil return line. The turbo oil drain line hole is further forward on the B23FT motors than it was on the B230FT motors. You may want to retain the B23FT oil cooler adapter for the trouble of building a new turbo oil drain tube.

The flywheel will bolt to the crankshaft, so you have no worries there.

The 398 casting head on the B23FT is SCP (small coolant passage), and is the equivalent of the 530 head on the B230FT. You have no reason to change or remove the head.
