Title: L20 swapped for L20B
Ross,
I don't think that L28 does much for the handling as the weight is very far forward. Did you see the Samuri 1200 coupe on that page? That also has an L28 but half of it's in the car. The front of the motor is nearly level with the front of the strut towers.
 
 
This car was built for circuit racing so I guess it must handle okay but then this car was built in the days before turbo fours were available (it originally had a 240Z engine). It's a lot of work to do this kind of swap and probably not worth the end result. If I was gonna use a six I'd go V6.

Hi list

Did anyone see that orange Stanza on Eddies UK site. It had a L28 Turbo in it. I was just wondering if anyone had tried swapping a L6 for a L4. Obviously it does fit, but does it bugger up the handling?

I was thinking that an RB20/25 would do nicely.
