    Unless your stock ecotec has forged pistons, don't do this, the motor won't last long with an M90 on top. You will most likely be looking at $1500 to $2000 for parts (or even an entire L67), as that's what most people seem to be selling them for on ebay.

    i agree with old mate above, be better off selling your motor and getting the whole l67 motor, box, wiring, ecu, exhaust, fuel pump, ect. by the time ya stuff around finding everything, buying it all, paying someone to fit it it wont be worth it. i got the whole motor,box,ect for $2000 and put it in myself on a weekend.
