Hi all,


My current 1984 UK 740 estate is flying around our lovely damp roads,

fuelled by a carburettor at the moment, but, a donor CIS system has

become available, for me to acquire; I'm not too worried about the fuel

pumps, distributors, etc. However, a potential fly in the soup, is that

the donor engine is a B200E, my questions/quandaries are, will this

donor cylinder head work ok on my B230 block, I know the bore diameter

will be a tiny bit smaller, but, the piston crowns shouldn't go near

there, however, will the little recess thus created at TDC have any

detrimental effect?. Are the valves and ports smaller, are the ports in

the exact same location? Has anyone done this before?

I've been waiting a long time for a full CIS system to become available,

because, I abhor complication in a car, and you can't get much more

simple than CIS, it also seems to be a lot simpler to retro fit,

compared to multipoint.


Anyway, thanks in advance, all input welcome :-)


Happy new year,


Ken Phillips
