Engine swap? 200 1983

You can use any year B230. They'll bolt up fine, and everything will be in the right place. Some sensors may need to be swapped out, save every block sensor from your B23.
All 240's have the distributor right where yours is.
I would expect you'll spend $400 having the head planed, plus gasket sets and all the fun of removing 20 year old exhaust bolts, etc. if you try to replace the block and re-use your head.
Good luck!
