Will do when it rocks up.

So if it's 45cc and so is a u67 head then my compression should stay at 8:1. The head I'm getting is a z18et head so still not sure of combustion size :/

OK I've got some more goodies coming in so now I can elaborate a bit more. The bottom end I'm using is a L20b that's been bored and had Mercedes full floating forged pistons fitted. Using a u67 head the compression was setup to 8:1 but now I'm fitting a Z18et head and I couldn't find the combustion chamber size for a z18 head so I'm not sure what the compression will be now. I know the z head won't flow as good but I'm using it because I like the idea of cross flow plus it was easier to get a turbo and efi manifold. I will be using ARP rod bolts and most likely a megasquirt computer. Can anyone tell me what's a good turbo that will fit the stock z18et manifold, what throttle body I should run, what my compression is and what sort of power I should be making? Its going in a 620 Ute btw

Hi everyone. I'm building up a L20b turbo. I'm using forged pistons, L20b block which has been bored out and since reading about L series turbos it seems the stock conrod bolts are a weak link. Is this true? Should I go ARP bolts? Also I have a u67 stock head but would it be any advantage to goto a z or ka head? Is it very hard to chuck on a L series?
