Sorry if this is in the wrong section

I am looking for a picture of the block, view of the cylinders, water jackets and bolt holes from above.

Thanks

Thanks guys! I really need to get ahold of one of these blocks and take some measurements for myself.

You gonna tell us why, or is it top secret?

[supra goddess]

, no, not top secret, but I dont feel like getting blasted for it as it may be a silly/impossible idea.

a few years back I remember reading something about soomeone slapping a DOHC head on an L28, but I can't remember what head it was, and I can't seem to find info on it online (may just not be looking hard enough)

I understand it would take a lot of work and money, but is just something I'm looking into, nothing I've got my heart set on.

It's always agitated me that people are pulling more n/a hp from L28s than they are with the Toyota 5MGE. People want 350hp instantly, and I don't want to go that route, so I'll be looking into building a nice n/a engine.

I'll either be building the 5M, boring it out to 3.31" (from 3.27) and stroking to 3.58" (from 3.35)

or I'll be looking into doing a 5M head/L28 block if thats even close to possible. Kind of hard to say without staring at the 2 blocks side by side right now,

Nothings impossible if you have enough money.

a few years back I remember reading something about someone slapping a DOHC head on an L28, but I can't remember what head it was, and I can't seem to find info on it online (may just not be looking hard enough)

There was an after-market twin cam head made for the L6 engine. It was made by OS Giken and called the TC24-B1. They are impossible to find and if you can find someone that has one, you would need a lot of money to make them part with it. This guy has one in his S30 (site is in japanese though).

more info on OS Giken heads

There is also a guy that posts on Hybridz.org and zcar.com that is making a twin cam head for an L28 using KA24 heads cut and welded together read about it here

There was also discussion on using an RB head on an L series. Apparently the bore spacing is the same and the head bolts all line up, but the problem is with oil and water galleries not lining up.

From the pics, the oil/water ports look semi-similar between L28 and 5M, but havent a clue if anything else is reasonably doable

Thanks for the great reads! I'll be definitely looking those over
