Turbone

I'll take a look after I'm done stuffing my face :-p Ok, the FSM parts book says its a DN Shift Solenoid. Theres no other solenoid on the case, so if someone else could cross check it, I'm pretty sure thats it. #31941 AA001 There is also a Transfer Clutch assembly. #31942 AA000

Looking good Steve. Looks like Lil Blue is going to have a buddy.

Umm, maybe before you were born :-p 1973

Wheres the pink? I dont see any pink on it yet :-p

I dont think you read the link to the thread I posted. It has all the info about modding this engine. I suggest reading that thread and if you need to, PM me for more details.

The only EJ trannies with D/R come from AUS. Theres someone here that was selling one a while back, he may still have it (Numchux). Otherwise you need a adapter plate to mate the EJ engine to the EA tranny. SJR makes one and theres a guy in BC that does (Rgyver).

C'mon guys, he owns a Jag.....he has to have deep pockets :-p Look up my posts in the Retrofit Forum, theres lots of stuff there about modding this engine. Unfortunately I think the place that I got my 2 row rad from no longer sells them (Radiator Barn) but theres others. As for pistons, you can contact Wiseco. They made some pistons for the XT6, which are the same as a EA82 and should still have the molds. Delta Cams makes cams for this engine also. If you are willing to put the time and money into it, it can be a reliable engine. Heres a thread on some mods, http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=88249

Glad you got it straightened out, now you just need to swap heads. Btw, a little OT here......but I went to HS at Rim of the World and lived in Running Springs for about 14yrs.

Nothing new for me, except for a few more beauty marks :-p

What do you think they use? My Hatch is running 4.11 front and rear with 30in tires. I have broken some rear axles but no stubs yet. If you dont have alot of angle to the axles, it shouldnt be much of a problem.

If it helps any, you can drill and tap the posts on the head to make it work. Save alot of trouble removing it and trying to locate another one.

Its somewhat rare, dont see to many 85's any more. Even tho its a low mileage engine, I would not do any mods to it. Replace the rad with a 2 row as stated above and check/replace all coolant hoses/lines. Nothing rare about the color either, I believe its cosmic blue. I'm a little suspicious about those tires tho, they look to be rally tires. Which could mean its been to a few races.......maybe.

Briggs had this stuff on his DC engine. I think he used a hammer Really, I dont recall how he got it off, but it was a pita.

Is the search function borked? http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=107887 Annnnnd... http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?p=29415465

I dont know what to tell you about the shavings, I guess try and clean as good as possible. The metal pieces are shims, they are for backlash I believe.

Retain everything from the LSD chunk, except the ring gear. You need to use the 3.9 gear. I dont recall using any sealant when I did mine and I used the 3.7 cover plate. I just changed the 3.7 to 3.9

Better to ask XT6 questions over at Subaru XT.com. http://subaruxt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=5773

I sure hope you're wearing a flame suit

Well, it does still have the seats in the back GF couldnt believe we got in as much as we did.

But its plastic My Brat started paying me back today, I put it to work.

How was the engine broken in? If its not properly broken in, oil consumption and other problems are possible.

I'm pretty sure only RX seats will fit, there are no crossovers. As for using used tires, make sure they are all the same size.

Mine still has the EA82T in it (for now), but it has a TD04 and WRX IC.

Theres a starter sitting in that spot, as I was pulling then engine.

TD04. Anything bigger will create to much lag.
