My son converted a B23 head to K-jet several years ago by having the existing casting "bosses" drilled & milled for the K-jet injectors. (This went back on the b23 block. Don't know about the b21 to b23 head issue.)

I can't quote a price as it was done at a semi-DIY shop. But my recollection is that it was a fairly simple job on a Bridgeport machine. I believe there are only 2 diameters plus a seal groove involved.

I'd try for a couple of machining estimates if it was mine.
