BENGAL Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Bought myself a nice little 76 subaru and now the engine has gone bad! Now I am looking for alternative engines. I'm tolds an EA71 is a direct fit, or possibly an EA81 if I use the EA81 trans. along with it, would be nice to have an overdrive. Just looking for suggestion as to what will or will not work?? I was able to drive this car around for a while , before the engine went bad. It is just amazing to me how much attention this little car draws! Wherever I go it is gauranteed someone will ask me about it and have favorable comments. BENGAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUBARU3 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I think he is going the traditional EA71 route. I chatted with him today. I don't think he would be interested in the EJ22 labor involved. Todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
