No clue, but I'd suggest looking over at Hybrid-Z as that is their kind of gig and you might find a good answer a lot quicker than here.

well thanks captainzeros i digging in some sources im kind like tight in space for the LD28 instead definitely ill try any of the 240 engines it seems like more flexible on upgrades and much better in fuel consumption and power cus right now i just get like 10 to 12 miles by gallon i see on other post that the weber its good choice but im scared about power and gas miles since on this truck puts his hands areal bad mechanic he messed up all the vacuum lines and wires now its all in place but with a chiltons reference book its hard to get the cake well Dan

Yeah. They're interchangeable. You will get much better gas milage with the L28 and even better milage with the LD28. Its a power to weight thing.
