What are the differences

Post by 1oldman »

in the internals of a LD5 and a L27. I know the compression ratio will be lower in the LD5 because it was Turbo-Charged and the L27 is NA. I know both are 90 degree V6s with the LD5 mount design is for a RWD car and the L27 design is for a FWD car.. That's just about all I know of differences in the two. Thanks - BC

It has LD5 and then if you scroll down a little there is the L27.
