If you need any tips on the EG33 engine, ask away. I've had the heads on my flowbench and we built one for NASA road racing that made 352 whp in a 2.5 RS chassis (AWD).





They like exhaust flow. A LOT. The heads have restrictive exhaust ports and small exhaust cams. Equal length headers and a single large exhaust really wakes it up.

They have cooling issues, but primarily at higher rpms. Keep it below 6500 and all is well. We were twisting 8200 rpms with some big-lift welded cams. The heads LOVE high valve lift. Just increasing the lift to .450" gained 40 cfm (@ 10"winking smiley of airflow on the intake ports. But we had to grind the underside of the cam covers to clear the lobes, LOL.....

HMMMM..... Could you fit one in an E30 bmw?

OMG !! That Impreza is freaking awesome. I stand corrected on a Sube sounding good, it sounds simply amazing.


Keep going Matt, you rock kid . Did I ever tell you about the time I dropped a Ford 460 in a Hudson Hornet or a Ford 5.0 in a 51 Plymouth?? L16 in a LUV truck? 13B in a 626??? You're a hero and even Ferris would agree.

Thanks Gene, that means a lot. smiling smiley

And I'll fully admit that video was a huge part of this swap. I just want to control that sound with my right foot!

I listen to this video quite a lot. It's great motivation. Matt I'm stoked that you're putting this in your RX7! You will love it!
And for all that are wondering.. The next Legacy is just about ready for paint. Cage has been grafted from the old one I wrecked at Hood. It's taken a long time, my Ulcerative Collitis has FOR REAL tried to kill me and my cashflow a couple times. Ugh. BUT! The fact remains this car will ride again!



Brap Brap.

I'm looking forward to it for sure! School is currently trying to kill me. So I rarely get to go work on it right now. But I'm hoping to get some shop time over christmas break. I also sourced a full car, so that's plan number one is strip that bad boy down to it's birthday suit.

Well now, look at what I finally was able to drag home and start parting out so I can get to that big sexy flat 6.
