Hi im John, i live in australia i found this forum on google.. as im looking for some info on the L27 is what i think its know over there as... but i havnt had much luck it doesnt seem to be very popular engine...
anyhow i have one in my holden, it has custom made TTB manifold(nothing fancy but does the job) and by xmas the rest of my turbo kit should have arrived, will be runing a Garrett GT35/40 as its mainly known as but its really a GT3582R, anyhow here is just a couple of pics i could find photo's are crap as they came off my mobile Attachment 21861 Attachment 21862 |
Man I think those holdens are absolutely gorgeous. You guys might have them all over the place, but we dool over them. That Vauxhall VXR8 we call the Pontiac G8 should have stayed here forever.
Anyways, I had an L27, and if we're talking about the same engine made 92-95, I know just about all these it to know about it. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll be more than glad to answer them for you. For starters, be warned that it doesn't take boost well. HOWEVER, the Series 1 Supercharged engine (the L27 being our Series 1), does have strengthened rods and pistons, which allow it to handle boost better. Feel free to ask more questions, and enjoy your stay. Bring some of your friends over! |
WOW... What a treat to have u here! I love Holdens!! Really neat car.
Welcome to the site. Make urself at home mate |
Welcome! I fixed up your post for you, so now your images work just fine. :D
That Holden looks like it's in excellent shape! I really like your setup, and please keep us posted on your work. I'm sure you'll find a wealth of knowledge on this forum. |
Thanks radomirthegreat for fixing it up i noticed there isnt a edit button here...
And thanks heaps guys, car is a 89 model vn commodore, originally came with a series 1 engine (but not sure what you guys call it over here..) and then the L27 came out in 1992-1995, then went to ecotecs L36 & the L67 was introduced from here, just to give you guys a understanding of how behind the times we have been lol. It's only been in the last 8 years that companys have started to make performance parts for the v6's so i thought i'd come and have a look and see what you guys are doing with your engine's and what sort of power you are getting...
