Just keep moving on the CA20 if you already have it.
The CA20 can be worse than the CA18, but even the CA18 has a terrible reputation for blowing headgaskets, leaking oil, and blowing heater hoses and making strange noises.
I think it will be good with fuel, and plenty of torque in a 120Y. If the engine is in good condition, it should all go well.
Can't wait to hear more on the progress.

ive got a 72 1200 ute with a ca20e in it. it goes alright and has massive amounts of torque. we drove it from melbourne to sydney no problem. 105hp but it only weighs 900kg(weighbridge only went to 0.1 ton increments). it spins my 205 rubber really easy.
