Originally I bought a 1982 244 to scavenge the manual transmission for my 1986 245. After looking at it the engine has 176,000 miles on on it (about 130,000 fewer than the 86)and checks out well, while the B230 is showing signs of the mileage.

Now thinking of swaping the entire B21 into the '86 except having a head job done on the b230 head and using it and the intake with the fuel injection system and transplanting them to the B21 block. I know physically this is possible, but does the B21 block have all the sensor location I need for the LH system? If not can it be made to work correctly?

Thanks in advance,

David
