I'm a soldier stationed in Arizona and this is my first time on USMB. I am in the process of doing an EJ20G swap on a 1987 GL AWD and your help will be greatly appreciated. I had to modify the motor mounts but I will be having problems with the wiring. I think its going to be a headache. Any help will be appreciated.

 

 

 

Thanks

Welcome!

 

What do you have as far as service manuals for the EJ20G? A factory manual is awesome, but even the schematics in the Chilton's manual are pretty good and cover most everything you'll need to hook up to make it run.

 

Good luck with the swap and don't be afraid to ask questions.

sounds like it will be cool when done, sorry i cant offer any advice on the swap though.

 

good luck, and keep at it. and post lots of pics of your progress.

For some local help, you could try contactin Subynut, a member here who lives in Sierra Vista.

Thank you for your advice, I downloaded a factory EJ22/EJ20 Manual from a VW/Subaru Swap website. So far the engine is in the car but I am recovering from an injury I had in Afghanistan. I just have not had the time to start wiring. How hard was your EJ22 wiring on your GL?

 

 

 

Thank you,

I'm not "finished" with it yet, as I still have to remove all the extra stuff from the legacy harness (very limited time available for the swap), but it was really easy to hook up.

Jeffast123,

 

As a member of the US Armed Forces, I thank you and appreciate your support. I understand that the military is not for everybody. I had a back injury and I’m still recovering. Hey… I’m thinking in purchasing a 92 SVX. What do you think? Again, thank you for your support.

Welcome to USMB Johnnyk, my back is healing up OK. Hey... I lived in Sandy and Salt Lake city back in the mid '90s. Sierra Vista is OK. Yes it is a small world.
