If you managed to melt the paint clear off, IMO, you might as well boat anchor the engine without even pulling the head. With some work, you could make any B23 or B230FT from a 1984-1995 700 or 900 series turbo fit just fine. Instead of pulling the head, spend the effort looking for a nice late model motor.

I think the real important lesson is to always investigate new sounds and new idiot lights going on ASAP.
