B20 head on B18 block... BAD? 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be flying-iron on  Wed Sep 22 07:30 CST 2004 [RELATED]


In looking over a 122 I'm considering buying, I discovered that it has a B20 head on a B18 block. I cannot ascertain from the book of work receipts that came with it however if it was bored out to take B20 pistons or not. My feeling is it has not. If this engine has been running like this for a while, could this have caused potential damage in some way?

On another line of thought, how could I discover if it has been bored, short of pulling off the head?
