Warren,


I agree that they all fit under the deck lid. However, Subaru transplants
require a lot of 'other' modifications to fit. None of the 'kits' are really
complete last time I checked. The 2.5 is not certified in California last
time I checked.


I'm not knocking those of you who prefer Subaru power. I just wanted to add
to your last post as it made the Subaru swap sound like a walk in the park.
