(Turbo, centrifical = B head -- positive diplacement = C head.)next choose your method of madness.  The cleanest, easiest, and most reliable way of doing the swap is to get a donor car (I highly suggest it).You can do the swap without the computer from the donor car, without the parts from the donor car, etc - but its much easier if you get them.Skip the modifications for now.  Just get it in, and get it working.  I spent YEARS and tens of thousands of dollars modifying my 4v swap just to have it blow after 6 weeks.If you do modifications, do the exhaust for now and call it good.  Headers are a pain in the ass.... get them out of the way.  after that its easiest to troubleshoot problems on a stock engine.</blockquote>
