You want to know what the L specifically means? Or just what the rpo means itself?

My guess is the style of the engine, eg. the "L" is a common reference to an OHV pushrod engine, no matter how many cylinders or arrangement. But the V is kind of a more obvious abbreviation. You'd think that it would be a "LV", right?
