As a matter of interest, is it possible to straight swap an existing 230f for a 200f? Might be handy for future reference.

there may be a difference in the metering units on the k jet cars - b200/230 f , would be more straight foward .

In case anyone does happen to know - I've got a 1990 245 with a B230KH and an M45 gearbox, but most places don't list the clutch. |

If you change the engine and use your original flywheel and box the clutch just stays the same as the engine you had, my car has a 940 engine a 740 gl box and a 240 b21 flywheel so my clutch is a 240 late b21 so the splines match the box, earlier b21 240's had a different spline count.
