B16 cars had a 4.56 rear axle. If you install a B20, you will be much happier with the axle from a later PV with a B18, which is 4.10.

B18 cars also have a larger radiator. If you want to do the swap you will need the center nose section from a B18 car. The small B16 radiator might be marginal with a B20, particularly if it has any performance modifications.
