 So, if I were to fly cut the top of a crankcase and restamp it, who would know the diff?

Since I started this, actually I was looking at entire engines with 
heads and sheet metal since that's the way we stored them. It sounds 
like I get the closest to what I want by sticking with a manual Corsa 
engine and not just a 140, even if I need to find a lower stress block 
to go with it...the lowest stress I could come up with in the stash was 
a 110 auto w/air but someone may want that one for a stock resto. I 
suppose I could even then redrill non Corsa 140 heads for the 
thermistor. Still in the sorting stages though...prompted by having 
momentary access to the family supply of hardware.

Thanks to all for the info,

Mark N
