Greetings again.
I wanted to thank all those who responded to my question. I think I will
wait an see if I can find a later model 1800cc engine for my 77B. I have
time. I am getting ready to do sill replacement and will worry about the
motor later.
Thanks again for the input!

Just ran into this exact problem. A huge thing to remember the motor mounts
will need to be changed as well as the front plate to the engine!!!!!

These engines will fit in either the roadster or
the GT equally well..interchanging any engine or
tranny will certainly work..motor mounts may need
shimmed(those thin steel things under one or the other
engine mount), depending on which carb set you use.
