this guy said it. You'd have to make a 2.1 yourself. Basically just bore an LSJ out, but I would resleeve it first.

Gotta use what you can, and short of the oil passages for VVT, theres no noteworthy differences between an LSJ block and a 1st gen Le5 block.

Alright, well i guess instead of buying a bike, im using the money for the motor. I still plan on usuing the same parts, but im picking up a full LSJ motor from the local boneyard with everything including the m62 for 1500. Ill be picking that up tomorrow and hopefully ordering the parts from OTTP tomorrow. I think i might be starting a build thread.
