Good that you caught that problem with his ad. However Subaru engines with about 75,000 miles on them can be had as a pull out complete with flywheel, motor controls, computer head, injectors, power steering pump, alternator, A/C compressor, motor mounts, exhaust system ........... the while McGilla for about $600.00 from Texas Wrecking Yards. Sometimes cheaper if you're willing to pull the engine yourself. That includes the 6 cylinders too. The conversion cost come in the kit that can be $1100.00 before you get everything tweaked and running. Stan Wilder Engine Ceramics 214-352-4931 www.engineceramics.com
