The point here is sorting out which Aussie parts are actually COMPATIBLE or DESIGNED for the L27 OR L67. Most of the stuff available is L27 specific, or generic for use in both.

Their engines may be GM 3800'*, but there are some major differences in how they deliver the power.
My sentiments Exactly! basically if your L27/L67 SI has the EV6 cast into the side a large majority of the Holden SI parts will work on our engines...

Shipping suxors though...

All this is great if you're putting a built s1 into a fiero . I'm just wondering how tame the wild camshaft would be on the street. I guess as tame as I make it right? haha

Nate, you still have a totally different PCM and intake setup. That EV6 block won't get you far.

There are some things Darth can do for us (yes I own one too) with the hybrid PCM. But there are things alot harder to unlock, too. The whole point isn't what OUR PCM can or can't do, but REALLY what the differences between the Aussies and us are.
