Good day everyone !

So late this year I will be putting my beautiful T2 bay (bombi haha) in the shed and completely remaking her I would like to do an engine conversion and a gearbox swap as well I had attempted to do a conversion 2 years ago just before I left in my aroun Australia trip but couldn't meet the deadline so just went for a 2L Vw

So the question is what's the best Subaru motor to use I was thinking an EJ20T , and how does one go about getting a Subaru gearbox fitted ?

Cheers ! :)

Also with the radiator in planning on mounting it beneath the car although she is lowered .... Is it plausible to mount it there or is there risk of damaging the radiator?

speak to Todd at subarugears.com for the gear box conversion side of things. He would most likely know a fair bit about the engine side too.

He is also on this forum.

EJ22 into Bay Microbus - Finished project build thread- click on here for info

This has a lot of pics and info in regards to radiator and Subaru engine stuff.

Subarugears is the best to ask about the box.

Hi

There's lots of useful info in the Non VW engine conversion section.
