yeah, i figured using im using a rebuilt l20 i scored for free so easier to set up loong run for l20 and if swap to the l16 later, enigne will be nice and super low.

you should fi ish up other one for l20 as well and then l16 will be nice and low in the engine bay as well.

L16 and L18 mounts sit the engine lower than L20b ones, thought they sat about the same forwards/backwards wise

your diff is about as strong as a ute diff, axles are ever so slightly thicker than ute ones but the centres are weaker...had one in my 200b and it snapped the pin that holds 2 spiders gears in the centre, made it act like a locker most of the time

did you mod the sump much? got pics?
pics of the engine in and some kinda level across the guard to see the height would be good
couldnt actaully get miks L20b under the bonnet without notching the crossmember

Possibly, didn't get out the tape measure was just holding them up against each other.

Cross Member Finished, Factory Edition .
Goin to get a modded sump like whitesedans one as i need to go a heap lower for bell housing clearance etc. Off to Melbourne in the A.M so back to it in a week ish.

should have brought sump down and stoped at sikines on the way to cut and weld up modded sump.

Very nice, very factory looking crossmember...

Yeah we winged the sump because we took so much capacity away when we clearanced it... watch out for the drag link though, mine just misses by a mm or so at full lock.

Keeping Mr Hanky. Cross member gets the knotch job and took a bit out of the bottom lip on front side Now to lower the engine a lot more. Heaps of front end bits all painted up with new bits ready to go in, Pics To Come tomorrow.

Im so thankfull for this thread it really saves me a hell of a lot of time.

Update. Tailshaft is off getting shortened 48mm. Got some engine mounts off getting modded to go another 5mm lower. Engine has all the basics connected and it turns over. Now to re route some wires e.g dizzy, temp etc. Plum up radiator and heater hoses and put in pedal box slave etc. Getting excited and i nearly gave up. Thanks guys for Answering me PM's most recently Whitesedan it kept me inspired.
