Lozer Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 So i got a hot lead on a most likly good motor for dirt cheap (92 sentra whole car) im wondering if this motor will bolt up to an l series trans for a swap? I know it may be relitivly pointless due to the loss of displacement and almost equal horse power of an l20b but im just curious. Quote Link to comment

ggzilla Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 GA16DE: 115 HP L20B: 100 HP L20B probably has significantly more HP at low RPM. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) Keep in mind the dizzy would be in the rear of the head and the intake facing the firewall if you were to mount the engine rwd. I like the engine, it's like a baby KA. A bunch of people have turbo'd them stock too with just a a/f controller. 10psi yields 200hp, not too bad for a 1.6 and minimal effort. All that said though I don't think its even nearly worth all the trouble even if the motor were free. Edited May 25, 2009 by 72240z Quote Link to comment
Cuts metal like mad Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 as far as I know, there is no RWD tranny it will bolt to, so all the speculating in the world gets you no where. A good fab shop could probably make you an adapter... but it would cost a lot. Quote Link to comment

72240z Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 What rwd tranny bolts up? I think I read somewhere someone using the awd trans and just eliminating the fwd aspect but I never seen or heard of a true rwd tranny bolting up. Quote Link to comment
Burabuda Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 from a jdm van that for some weird reason used a ga but was rwd ... most of those oddball vehicles are gone now that ghosn wiped them out dunno if the rwd version had a different dizzy setup than the sentra, but never got that far i doubt there's any takers as it would be a serious undertaking for a 1.6 :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
Lozer Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 yea it was a quick thought for a super cheap car but ive moved on. Quote Link to comment
