Send us Fan MailI was able to sit down with Scott Malloy, Grid Life official, car builder, and future GLTC racer to go over the "new" Honda swap. The L series engine is a 1.5L turbo engine available in the civic, accord, and crv. These are the Honda engines that will (and are) everywhere... if you are swapping a Honda, a Miata, BRZ/FRS, etc... this is going to be the K series replacement. There are a handful of folks in the US that are doing the swap now... and helping get parts developed... and we talk bout it on this episode! Follow Scott on IG @gltc_ej2 for future updates! If you like what you hear, please rate, review, and share the podcast.Support the show
