I'm trying to source parts to build a engine for FG turbo, so just want to know the things to look out for which wont work... few things I have in mind at the moment: 1. Ba/bf head on fg block or vice versa?2. Standard piston diameter between all 3 heads?3. Dipstick location on each block?4. any of the cam gears, chain guides, studs, sumps, oil pickups etc? Cheers in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be changed.B series heads are different. Fg has a slightly smaller "improved" chamber design.Timing gear is same. Cams differ.Sumps are different, oil pickup location is different. Can be easily changed. Edited 05/05/15 06:36 AM by barnz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
