Depending on which oil sump you use, and which.engine bracets, you can use the same crossmember

Haha, I have both sumps. but I gave my crossmember to superfatto

And it fits so nice :)

Just don't ask where it fits so nice cause its not in his car

Bare engine weights
a10 61KG
A12 70kg (30kg block bare) early front dizzie
A15 80kg (36kg block bare)
L16 86kg (37.5kg block bare)
CA18de Bare ??? (38kg block bare)
L18 98-100kg (46-48kg block bare) siamese bores
L20 ???kg (48-52kg block bare) siamese bores

Suzuki g13b engine block no head 35kg (all internals)
(lighter than A15 block stripped bare!!!!)

I put an L20B with headers and twin SU's into a sunny coupe once.
It was lots of work, and the end result was very disapointing. I'd never bother with an L series motor again.

wish u all a very happy new year guys.

i'm looking into swapping an L16 into my b210.

the engine is currently on a 160j.

i need advice.

will the x member bolt on directly on my car?

also the L16 has a 3 speed g.box, which 5 speed box can i use?

thanks

hi, please go ahead and click New Topic (at the top of this page) and put the title as "L-series engines in a B210". This topic is for putting one in a 1200.

Personally except for being an all datto conversion I would build one with the Suzuki G13B as power to weight not only helps in straight line performance but handling and braking.
I own a Mark 1 GTI Suzuki and stock with 100 HP it weighs 683KG dry and absolutely kicks ass when compared to the 4AGE engined Toyotas,That shows what a difference overall power to weight makes as the right 4AGE makes between 110 to 125 HP ex factory. No slightly hot L series gets near that,The most powerfull L series ex factory was the Injected 180B SSS in Japan with 125 HP.

Finding a good L series is becoming an issue as well with corrosion of the Heads causing potential problems,A later Suzuki Engine is modern,Light and available for a good price and suits a light car like a 1200 Coupe and is a bolt up RWD conversion thanks to the Sierras being compatable and using a separate Transfer case setup for the 4WD.

The Mark 1 used a Distributor and Fuel only Computer so these allow a twin weber conversion quite easily and that really makes them crack,The later engines had upgraded timing belts (Wider and Stronger) but went to a full management system,The Mark 1 Dissy can be retrofitted and with twin Webers would be a cool conversion with great power to weight.

i think your missing the point. yes there are plenty of cheep modern engines available that are light with good power and bolt in fitting kits BUT if you want a period engine for a low cost that has a #OOPS#load more power than an a series the l series wins.
i can't tell you how many people wet there pants when i pop the bonnet and they see the humble l18e in there, even people with big power datos.
