Subject:Re: Inside a Subi engine EJ22

Ok, a probably stupid question to big guys. Is subi engine heavier
than VW stock? It looks it has more metal than VW stock has. I am
more interested in an ej25. It has even more metal than ej22.
Ej25 are available for slightly over $1k here.

Now if it is heavier and it is in the back will my westy look funny
because the front end will want to go up than go forward when the
rear end pushes?
