Ok,..with all the MAJOR experienced people on this form,..and these conversions being accomplished for years now,..is there a BEST way to do a SUBIE conversion or a most popular,.. or easiest way to convert.(regardless of engine choice).
Meaning,..best radiator to use,due to size,..or run lines under car, or thru the longs,.best hose to use,..or fittings,..engine cradel's ,..which fuel pumps work well,..what's the best way to strip down a harness,..or have it done.. Etc I know a lot of this is personal preference,.or used what's available,..I cant belive someone didn't write a book of guidelines on this,...Its seems very popular,...a few years ago I would have never even considerd doing this,..and NOW,..I cant wait to get started,..!!!!! |

I'd use a Subie transmission- you'll spend as much if not more buying the adapter and rebuilding the 901 as you would to source a good Subie 5 speed and buying the shift mechanism, cables and such. Plus you'll have a great match for the driveline and parts you can buy right off the parts counter at Subaru. You'll have to have custom axles but they're readily available and you don't want to use stock axles with an EG33 anyway- too much power for the stock stuff...
