Mick,
Thats a good idea, but you need to decompress your L series before fitting
the Z18ET head and manifolds. You should also change the angle of the block
as the oil returns need the block to be inclined to prevent oil build up
over the valve stem seals

U could just put a Z head onto an L series block.. then u could keep the
same gearbox and even the same engine number..
I think thats what i am going to do

Thanks for that Zac, a few people had told me otherwise. I think I'll
have to go for an aftermarket comp. or find a complete package, not having
much luck though.

Sorry, but you do need a gearbox!
The Z18 sits on an angle (8 degrees from memory) and thus the gear
selector will point towards the passenger.
I have seen a Z18 in a 1600 with an L-series box, but the owner had
angled the engine instaed. it looked hideous. 1/2 the strut tower was
sledge hammered to clear the inlet manifold!

List,
I've found a Z-18et for a really good price without the box or the
computer and harness. Everything else is there. I already have a few L
series boxes at home so I don't need a gearbox but I do need a HARNESS and
COMPUTER. If any of you guys who have put aftermarket computer on your
zeds have one lying around and are willing to sell it, could you write
back.
I JUST DON'T WANT TO LET THIS ONE SLIP THROUGH MY FINGERS, BUT I'LL
HAVE TO IF I CAN'T GET A COMPUTER AND HARNESS
Thanks
Daniel Kroehn
