I need to know where to get an adapter plate. I live in washington state. I would like to know what else is needed to put this trans with this engine.

you also need a re-drilled EA82 flywheel or flexplate.

 

SJR lifts does both flywheels and adapter plates, there are a few others that do them too. Although you can do the flywheel yourself fairly easily.

will the ea82 flywheel have an effect on the starter positioning and will the adapter plate move the trans back enough to affect the driveline.

No issues with starter or trans positioning.

 

The EJ bellhousing is 1/2" shorter than the EA82, so when you add the adapter thickness, you end up back at the OE EA82 dimensions.

my freind regan in kelowna bc makes them and i uhsaly bolt the ej flywheel to the ea flywheel drill out the bolt holes rotate the holes and drill the other two holes just did one 91 turbo legacy engine in a 88 gl wagon high low wrked well do not use ej flywheel unless willing to modify starter mount
