Thanks, any certain year are the all the same?

Does the ej18 have a carbed version? Does it have a distributor? Will it have to be run by computer? For 150 dollars I would never rebuild my ea82. Were can I get a ej18? Is the ej18 alot heavier? Would the transmission bolt pattern be the same? That is alot of questions, I'll let you know in advance I appreciate the help. I'm sure the the ej18 is a horizonally opposed engine. Sorry I see that u said that people have carbed them so diregard the questions about carbs and computer.

Inboard with a rudder that has a cooling system that uses keels so that you don't require water from the bayou. I will drive right through soft mudd that has know water in it. Best use is to go through the marsh. The 1800 duel carb that the subaru brat had for a few years was suppost to have more horses than my overhead cam. I thought if the difference was compression or cam I could match on the rebuild. I herd ya about the turbo.

The ea82 that is on the block has a square around, if that is what you mean? The engine has a low cylinder, still within 75 percent and rebuild is in sight got to make it through the hunting season first. I can take a picture what area would be best for you to see, like maybe a close up or something. The engine was carbed as far as I know. Would like to get some more horse power and a higher rpm at the top end. Dont want to loose to much low end if I can help it. Dont know if pump gas can stand any more compression, when I take this engine apart and get it bored to a clean over, I will need to know were I can get over size pistons and new bearings and gaskets and such and while its down I can shave the heads alittle and do some port and polishing maybe get a better cam I dont know. Any help would be appreciated I also have access to a turbo. I can't do this without help though. I know that these engines have been worked, probely by you or some others on this sight. THANKS.

Hello everybody, I have a ea82 In my mudd boat and was wanting to see if their is performance upgrades that I can do and was also wondering if I can find out the year model. Thanks.
