We'll see what I'm left with once all is said and done 
Doesn't the L27 have higher compression than it'* Supercharged sister?
What makes the difference in compression? Or am I wrong on that?

So the heads are the same?

For the 1993-1995 Years on the L27 and the 1994-1995 L67 the heads are the same..

Three options that I am looking at:
1. Rebuild this thing ($1800+) + Trans ($1500-2k)
2. Reman L67 Long Block ($1600) + Trans ($1500-2k)
3. Buy another '93 SSE /w 'well over' 200k on the original trans and motor ($600) + get previously mentioned Series II L67 /w everything ($1800) and wire it up while still driving the same car, except it'* a green version...with silver aeros...
Most likely and less time consuming is #2, #3 seems cheaper but slightly far fetched...that would be hoping that that car wont become a money pit as soon as its bought., but could be parted out/sold if not...

Don't let the wiring scare you on doing an S2 conversion...that is still a possibility, and probably the cheapest route to go.
The wiring isn't that bad.
