Results are presented describing the influence of overshooting on the evolution of massive close binaries (case B). Primaries with masses 20 Msun, 40 Msun, 60 Msun, are considered. The computations are compared to computations without overshooting. In order to explain the observed characteristics of WR + OB binaries with case B binary evolution and overshooting, the Roche lobe overflow should be conservative (i.e. all mass leaving the primary is accreted by the secondary). This result has to be compared with non-overshooting models where a similar analysis revealed that most of the matter lost by the primary also leaves the binary system.
