Good info there, but still doesn't explain why the ej flywheel and clutch assembly can't be used.

Yes Toonga, I have ej22 with full clutch assembly, adaptor plate and l series 5 speed. I have looked for the answer to this question but can't find a definitive answer. I don't have a L
flywheel. I just want to know why this can or can't be done.

Can someone tell me if I can use full ej22 clutch setup to mate l series 5 speed. If not why?

Mate try Peppertown on Sandgate Road at Virginia ( northside) They do outdoor playground equipment, cannoes, and furniture but also sell matting and resin and cattylist as well. And I think they're open Sundays

thanks for the replies guys It appears I'll be keeping quite a few bits from the L as spares. By the way does anyone know the diff ratio of a May 87 build L series.

Thanks Dfoyl, yeah I will swap the seats over and keep all the 5 speed swap bits as well. I assume the L driveshafts will have to be swapped as well but can you tell me if they need modding to fit, Also do you think there's any benefit in fitting L booster and /or master cylinder. Thanks

Thanks for all the replies guys. I have a 89 brumby that I,m turning into all that it can be. I recently bought a friends L series wagon predominantly for the 5 speed and its wheels but was wondering what other bits were worth taxing before I wreck it ( anyone need L bits ).

Do the brakes from the L series fit brumby and is it worth the trouble.

Thanks Wagonist, but I wanted non turbo and importing a motor from Sydney isn't real cost effective for me.

Guy's, I would like to locate an Ej engine package( loom and computer etc) in Brisbane. Where's the best place to look. Ps Don't need box as I'm mating to L series 5 speed. Thanks

yeah, Alpineraven. Never got to drive it, but did get most my money back. The only stumbling block were the driveshafts. Remember this was about 6 years ago when all the nay-sayers said it was impossible. Anyway money is still short just like my memory, which is why I have to justify all the fuss.

Thanks for all the replies guys. I once did a 2.5 quad cam swap into Brumby but never finished it. Had to sell to pay ex-wife. Anyway never got to drive it and just lately I managed to procure another Brumby that basically is in good nick. The motor seems to go alright, but the thought of twincam sw...

I'd like some feedback from people who have done the Ej swap, both turbo and N/a, who could objectively give an opinion as to the viability of its on and off- road capabilities.
