1* b230g (with carb) 250+k, fine no issues (the one i got married in!)

1* b20 (wiht twin carbs) god alone knows how many miles, but certianly > 500,000 no issues

1*b230f - car scrapped due to serious internal engine corrosion, 170k

1*b200g - 150k, mechanical injection, just cant get it to ide right and mysterious miss...

1*b230ft - 145k, see oil issues...
