dharper Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hi.....my name is Dave and I'm looking for a little info. I have a 96 Outback wagon with the 2.5 dohc. Bought the car with bad head gasket for parts for another wrecked outback. Donor car was in better shape so chose to relace headgasket,t-belt, water pump etc and drive instead of wrecked car. 1000 miles after repair engine started knocking badly. Found two spun rod bearings and severely damaged crankshaft. Due to financial restrictions have given up on repairing engine and replacement 2.5 is stupid money for this car. Now for my question........... other car is 96 Outback wagon, 2.2l manual trans. Can I swap this 2.2 into 2.5 car without BIG headaches. Appears EGR is the biggest issue. Will my 2.5 intake work on this 2.2 engine? Any info would be really appreciated! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
