You would not discount the L24 block because the pistons stick 4.75 mm above the deck or that it yields a 20.5:1 (18.7:1 using an E88 head) compression ratio using L24 rods? Or that it yields an 12.5:1 - I mistyped the last one (12:1 using an E88 head) using L28 rods? A 12:1 compression ratio would require an aggressive cam and race gas. Why bother putting an LD28 crank into an L24 and only getting 2.7L of displacement. LD28 cranks typically run $300. For $300 you can get a complete L28 N42 or F54 and N42 head setup.
