The other thing to think about is what cam to use. Your B200E should have and A cam and the penta engine most likely has a P cam. With the long stroke the engine will take more cam before loosing low end power. I know you are on a budget so could be worth looking for a used V, VX or K cam all of which will still be good with the LPG

From what i can work out, he needs to transplant his original head onto the Penta block for the K-Jet injection and dizzy so hopefully that won't be a problem for him.

This combo will lean out at higher revs. Don't try this without a Lambda-control unit.
K-jet is the best mechanical fuel injection system. Still very difficult to modify. To add 25% of capacity, what are you dreaming about at night? Try and don't reclaim later. A LH2.4 swap is done very easy Good luck, you will need a lot, Kay |

If the compromise is a slightly rich idle to preotect the top end, i doubt that will be too much of a problem. As i pointed out further up, Tom is still learining and at the moment, i don't think he's ready to even contemplate adding EFi He may not need to learn if he can get the desired performance from the 2.5 unit - either way it will be an improvement over the 2.0 unit presently fitted!
