I done a search but no luck.
Just wondering if an Xr6T engine will go into an EL. If so, what needs to be done. Thanks. |

I believe the sump and bonnet need major modification, and if you get a gearbox that wasnt a BTR or T5 (ie, the 6spd auto and manuals) the gearbox x-member probably wont line up. I dont think the shifters will line up whatever happens.
Electronically, I have no idea.

The main problem you will find with the BA engine is bonnet clearance. It is a lot taller than the EA-AU engines. There is an EL XR with an XR6T engine, named JETXR. For it, he cut a small hole in the bonnet so the rocker cover would clear. Dansedgli is also doing the XR6T engine in his EA but he's trying hard to get it to fit without chopping up the bonnet.
