"Hello,
I have an aq131d that broke a rod and pretty much destroyed the block. The block is a b230. The only thing i can find nearby is a volvo car with a b230f, which is fuel injected.The block appears to be cast the same as the b230 but the distributor is in the head on the car engine, with a plug stuck in the hole for the dist. on the block and a plate bolted over the fuel pump hole.I was planning to use the block and put my head,intake and exh. manifold on it. Does anyone know if the b230f has the countershaft in it to drive the dist. and fuel pump because the shaft in my original b230 was broken when the busted rod hit it, so using my shaft is not an option. Or if i used the completed car engine and used the marine alternater and starter what problems would there be,besides giving up some hole shot horsepower. Would the car distributor be acceptable since it is in the head and my marine dist. will not interchange. I could not find a marine dist. for this motor that goes in the head. Sorry for the long post but any help, ideas or suggestions would be appreciated."
