I want to ask will the head fit on this engine, i am sure it will fit on the block because they use the same one, but what about the electrics?
Will the ECU self map? Because i have seen m43b16/18 with a m42/m44 head using the stock ECU, but i am not sure about the m43tub19.
Will have to put the m42 pistons, crank and conrods in there probably.
If it works i will probably have a custom tune, but i want to know if the ECU will be able to start the engine and work good enough to be drivable.
And if all this happens to work, will probably put an m47d crank in there.
