It really depends on the condition of the motors. All things being equal, the L-20 will have more power, but use more gas. You have to decide what motor you want to use. Years ago, I replaced the worn L-16 motor in my 1970 PL521 with a L-18, that was orginally fuel injected. I removed the fuel injection, and replaced with the manifolds and carb that was orginally on the L-16. I ran that truck for many years. At that time, there was a large supply of motors imported from Japan, that came from fairly low milage cars. The Japanese motors could be bought for a LOT less than the cost of parts to rebuild the orginal motor.
