serendipity123 is an unknown quantity at this point
Default ca18et to det

is it possible to swap the head from a det and put on the block of a et, as i bought a det with slight bottom end wear, yet i rebuilt the et only 3000 miles ago, it would also save me having to swap the megasquirt trigger wheels over from the crank pully.

thank you for your advice

They have different headbolts and the et crank assembly,rods and pistons aren't as strong.It won't just bolt on,best off to fix the det bottom end and fit the whole engine.
What do you mean by slight wear?
Big ends,mains and rings are relatively cheap for them.
