CarbonBlack240 Posted January 25, 2011 Share #1 Posted January 25, 2011 Hello to all, I am having some trouble with my L26 and i'm about ready to just do an engine swap. I would prefer an RB25 but that's a little out of my price range at the moment. Therefore I am looking for an RB20 or an SR20, do any of ya'll know where I can get the complete swap?? Besides ebay or craigslist I can't find anything and I know there are more options. If anyone has any ideas it would help out alot! Thanks!

SteveJ Posted January 25, 2011 Share #3 Posted January 25, 2011 If you want to do a swap, go to Hybridz.org. Just read a lot before posting questions. What's wrong with your L26 besides having Holley mounted on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarbonBlack240 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted January 25, 2011 Over half the rocker arms are out of line and and my clutch is going out. I am not about to tear apart the engine to fix rocker arms. haha It's just way easier to do a swap. and I have been wanting to do one for a while now..

SteveJ Posted January 25, 2011 Share #6 Posted January 25, 2011 You'll feel that way until you get into the swap..... Stephen has a point. If you thought it was a challenge figuring out the brake light circuit, imagine wiring the electronics in with a newer engine. It would also be without a factory wiring diagram to help.

You don't have to "tear apart" anything to do anything rocker arm related. You do have to take the valve cover off. If that's a big undertaking for you then maybe an engine swap is not a good idea. Changing a clutch is also magnitudes easier than an engine swap.Some strange logic is being applied here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
