    L67 Air To Air Belt Size

    Hi all, Was just hoping if anybody could tell me whether or not I need a longer belt when running the mace air to air setup with a 3.4” pulley? I was told by someone locally I wouldn’t have to, but I have doubts about that. I’m assuming I’d just add the 52mm in height to the 1755mm length of...

    [Ecotec] L67 Rebuild

    I recently for an L67 that has been fully rebuilt but if course I'm going to strip it myself to make sure it's been done properly. He said it had JE forged pistons that has 20 thou over. Won't this make too higher compression? How can I add compression back to run more boost? Thanks

    Hey guys, I'm thinking of slapping a turbo on the VL. Just wondering if it is a must to swap over the ECU when a turbo is added, or does the N/A ECU have the capability to slightly adjust air/fuel to accommodate boost?
