84 head swap to 900 series twin cam head

84 single cam bf23 motor to fit a B234 twin cam cylinder head from 900 series.
Asking if the heads are a straight swap as in bolting to the engine. And IF the efi inlet and exhaust manifolds need to be change or how hard would it be thanks.

Re: Info on worn shaft. Aw 30-71 gearbox

The pump directly behind those shafts. Thats what the download i have says it is. Will it be ok to install that gearbox with the lesser worn shaft at all? What runs/grabs that worn shaft anyway, Thanks again

Info on worn shaft. Aw 30-71 gearbox

Hi just wondering what the out shaft does as one is worn and the other is very worn, looks like a badly worn starter motor shaft where the brushes run. thanks I think it maybe something to do with the pump.
