Subject:      faster syncro ebay
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"


i am looking to upgrade my stock syncro to a faster, more reliable
engine.  my current plan is to go subaru 2.5.  plan b is to find a
suitable replacement van, someone has done exaclty what i want to do but
doesn't want the van anymore.  then i can sell mine, buy theirs, and
probably save some money.


this van has been for sale a few times on ebay, and it's not far from
here.  http://tinyurl.com/dk9eb (ebay #4600518524).  is the owner a
listmember?  (of course i'll email him eventually, but i'm asking y'all
first)  does anyone have any beta on this kind of engine install?  it's
not really a tiico.  i'm curious about ground clearance, vibration,
problems with the 50 deg angle, his description of the oil suck issue,
etc.


i really want a subaru, but maybe this is a better option?


thanks.
