The EB will have the log style inlet manifold, the EL will have the Broadband Manifold. Do some searches for "BBM conversion" or "Broadband Manifold Conversion". There is LOTS of information around for this.

It is all essentially the same, but there are some things to consider, so have a read.

Cheers

Bloody hell, is the world coming to an end?

Waggin is contributing!!

Seriously though he is right. Another alternative is just remove the BBM manifold from the EL motor and install your log and its pretty much that easy, you will retain any cruise control you currently have if any, throttle cables will remain.

To get the BBM running though is pretty easy too. ef or el accelerator cable, and add an RPM switch to switch the runners on the BBM.

Dont forget also if you fit a EL EL throttle cable you will require a EF EL accelerator pedal as well.
