rorz Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 VL's have the RB30E engine or the RB20E engine. An easy way to tell the difference is to look at the throttle cable, in the 30's the cable comes right around the head and the 20's cable comes over top the plenum chamber. As for your question, i'd say the gearboxes do bolt up however im not entirely certain. i think the Rb20E 5th gear is of a differnent or shorter ratio aswell?
