Meeky Moose Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 since i need a completely new motor for my 99 outback, how hard would it be to stick a 3.3 under the hood? anyone ever done the conversion? i know i'd need a complete 3.3 harness and ecm.. maybe an intrument cluster as well.. otherwise i'd imagine everthing else would be the same sicne they do make an outback with a 3.3.. any feedback on this?

outback_97 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I don't think it would fit. 3.3 = SVX engine 3.0 = new 6 cyl. You're thinking of the 3.0 in the second gen outbacks (third gen legacies)... that one *might* fit, but I don't think the SVX engine would fit... too big. There's a guy on Nasioc that has a 3.0 in a mid 90's Impreza... they actually have a lot of stuff written up on that install, and it took a whole lotta work. Barely fit in there. Here's the FAQ about the swap, interesting stuff: http://linaracing.com/impreza-h6-conversion-faq.cfm Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
