As for the USA 240 series -- I'm sure carrying over the B20F from the 1974 140 series had to do with them being certified for the feds and California. Maybe also allowing time for training USA techs. The '75 164 carried over it's 140 based body but had the floor pan for a 240 from the windshield back -- which makes it a doable candidate to marry a 245 rear to a '75 164 front gaining you the wishbone front suspension and the in-line 6 in a "165". A friend built one years ago - unfortunately lost it in divorce. -- Dave
