Hi Guys
Am currently installing a ej22 in my 58 split am wondering what the thoughs on an engine mount.Whether to use factory subaru mountings or to hang off the bell housing with a intermediate gearbox mount

i reckon both preferably...the sooby seems to weigh a fair bit more plus mounting the box first and getting the driveshafts lined up might mean less juggling

At the bottom. The rest of the thread's an interesting read too.
