hi all, it's a 98, only 67k on it, must have floated a valve dropping the keepers...

its a 5 speed. the whole car is really clean, she must have been a garage queen (till she died) last reg is 8 years back.

I'm seriously contemplating a subaru engine transplant (cue the flame war).
I've done 4 subie motors into vanagons in the past, so I'm well versed in the basics, wiring and suppliers....

the best I've heard so far for a 2.5 P motor (used no guarantee, but a video of it running) is in the 1500$ range for a long block... wit a 6 month guarantee from local used place is 3500-5500...

any ideas, this car is too nice to part out. (and I really want to drive it through the twisties.
