Hello,

This will be as easy as apple pie. The B21F and B23E motors are virtually identical safe for larger bore, higher compressions pistons and if you had the head, a more agressive cam and an air injection system on the exhaust that promotes more complete combustion.

That said, it will be an easy changeover, no headaches to worry about and you'll have a little more snuff when it's all back together.

Good Luck and Happy Bricking!!!
