Alright, I bought a 2006 lsj for 2300 bucks because the previous owner over revved it and messed up the timing. Valve went though one of the pistons. My plan is to take the m62 off of the lsj and put it on my l61 and then put my turbo kit from the l61 on the lsj with a gen 3 block with forged internals (not sure if i want to stay 2.0 or do a 2.1) My question is should I just swap the oil pans from one car to the other? That way I don't have to worry about plugging the return line on the l61 and welding a return line on the lsj. I know the lsj oil pan holds more oil. Is it more beneficial to stay with the blower or should I keep it on the lsj with the turbo kit? And would 80s be over kill on a stage 2 pulley (3") if I plan to keep running e85 on the l61? And is there a link for doing the dual pass yourself?

 

I have 42s with a 3". No issues.

I'm not familiar with what is needed for going turbo, but I would hazard a guess that more oil in the pan would be better since the turbo uses oil and a blower doesn't.

What exactly do you need for the dual pass? The hose routing?

 

Just swap pans

 

hose routing and what do you do to the endplate to make it dual pass?

 

Swap pans.

80s would be overkill for a 3.0 but maybe you could trade someone 60s and have them give you cash on top.

Dual pass all you have to do is tap the center and put a fitting for 3/4" hose.
