B21s are getting harder to find, although not impossible. You are lucky that they are largely unwanted by anyone removing them, so don't pay too much.

Pretty much any other redblock (b200 or b230) will fit, there are differences but 90% of parts are interchangeable or upgradable (is that a word?)

If you can find a b230, and M46 (4 + overdrive) box, with accompanying crossmember and prop from a later 240, that would make a great upgrade.
