I'm planning on building a 2.3, but the block I can acquire is an VIII block.. I have a IX..

What are the issues I will run into that my machinist should know about? Obviously, I believe the mivec will need to be tapped for. If that is the only thing where on the block does this get tapped.. is the viii motor already set up (already tapped just plugged) I assume not..

Thanks for any help...
