sho_shane Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 I dont plan on it, I am going to fix the body work and start on the inside. On a side project I want to find another L20B and start a new build. Im thinking bord 40 over, Big valves, some P@P to the head and a nice size cam. Then a set of Duel Side draft webbers. But I dont know where to find L20B im not sure what to look for in the yards, and I dont know where to get performance parts and rebuild parts for a L20B. Any help would be great.
