WTB Subaru Set up


I'm about to fit up my Subby 2.5lt engine in my 58 split and getting everything together.

Not sure if anyone has anything about, I have the motor/adaptor plate but chasing the rest of the gear, radiator, thermos, cover etc etc.

My number is 0412 848 579 or reply.

Thanks

Thanks fellas,

Seagull, I'm not sure what ect ect is but what I meant by etc was the rest of the gear that I would need to complete this conversion.

I have never gone down this path before but I rang customveedub and they have a cover or scoop that goes over the radiator to scoop the air in underneath. that sits between the chasis rails and also the crossmember

Apparently I need to get my loom modified as well as the sump.

They just seemed very pricey for what I would be getting so was seeing if there was other places or if anyone had something.

Otherwise I guess I will hunt the wreckers and make the things up ourselves .....

Any help appreciated.

Sump can be easily modded your self if you have a grinder and welder.

wiring loom stripping just requires a Haynes manual or some other way to get the wiring diagram plus a little help from on here as to the none engine sensors required to make the ECU work.




madness is in the eye of the beholder :yes:
