it will bolt up. my concern is the smaller combustion chamber on the bigger piston. might be premium gas octane or higher when you're done-higher compression.

the canadians got a b23 starting in 81. the airflow meter and fuel dist. were different than the b21, higher air flow. so the b21 kjet stuff will starve the engine a bit.

if i were to try this, it would be an 89 or later block, they're sturdier than the early b230s. good luck, chuck.
