Soobie experts please share known issues swapping 2.5's for 2.2's; If you know what threads to search please share that as well, my car is a 97 Outback Legacy 2.5 with AT/ 4WD. As always, thanks in advance for all of your technical help and inspiring motivation. Happy Motoring!

svxpert and ShawnW -thanks for your replies Airtools rule! ... so, looks like i'm pulling the motor. The intake is off - the fans are off - (just put the belt back on - looks like i am one tooth off) pretty much ready to pull the cam's if i can ever get the sprockets off. ... with the motor out of the car what is the preffered method? I am using a Haynes (not the first time - so i know better than to think that all they can do is get me close) YOUR reply does make a diffence on this time sensitive project. Thanks in advance for your kindnesses. Happy Motoring!
