This is kinda the heart of the project, Subaru WRX EJ 20 motor, some of the things going into it are:
2.5 L crankshaft, 12mm high flow oil pump, KP’s MLS full gasket set (1.2mm thick), Mahle Street Stroker Forged pistons and ring set, ARP Head Stud kit, Manley H Beam Stroker Connecting Rods, King Race Big end Bearings, King Race Main, Gates Racing Belt kit, Brain Crowler Upgraded shafts, stronger springs, Retainers etc.., Brian Crowler Adjustable Cam Wheels, WRX parallel fuel rails, 800cc Siemens injectors, injector wiring plug kit, WRX/STI 245 ltr fuel pump, Link Storm G4+ ECU
The transmission was rebuilt in Australia and is Subaru, don’t know the model right now. This is a little project for a 69 bug, hope to have it done in July ‘15 . The drive train is being handled by AVO Turbo Thailand.
Hopefully I can post some pics throughout the build. I’m 63 and this is replacing the Harley’s as it should be a little easier to drive.

Just an update on the motor, it has been around the world more than me. Started in Aussie at a machine shop that I don't have the name of. They did the block and head machine work. Then we waited about 3 weeks for the big end brg.'s. Then there was the assembly and disassembly to machine the case to clearenance the rods. Then it was assembly/disassembly to machine the rods back in Aussie to clear the block. Rods were shipped last week.

Hey, interesting air intakes in the sides, but have you thought about the water that might come in inside the body panel?

Well it is progressing slowly but it's still going forward. The major frame mods are done on the front, now fitting the ass end together.
