I wouldn't bother with an L series conversion. it was a cunt of a job, and the end result wasn't worth it
IMO. If I were you I'd stick a CA18 into it. Stuff is so cheap now that it'd end up costing almost the same. And you'll get a better end result. Plus you could bolt a turbo on later on if you wanted.

agree with bart there. huge hp can be gained alot easier from a ca than an L engine. but an old L is still a legend!!!
