My turbo set up etc will be going onto the green 45 eventually which has had loads of TLC so I'll still have an L series to play with

well glad to hear that the setup will live and that another L will get to be tinkered with

Given the bits and pieces you put on the old TD, I guess it makes some sense to do the T16 to it, rather than find another petrol shell, and transplant then sell/weigh in the dead TD...

With these cars nowadays definitely better the devil you know I think. Being the diesel may actually have some advantages for example I have my "straight through" 2.5" exhaust, the diesel shafts are ideal, string rates are right, ARBs are right, some of the mounts can be used etc. The drawback is having to change the clocks and fuel tank (and associated pump) but that should be pretty easy.
