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.
