Hey Roger,

Check out http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/subaruvanagon/

Even if you are just thinking about it, join the group and read up on the
archives.  Once you join, you can check out the "Files" and there is a
folder for FAQs about the conversion.  I'm pretty sure all of your questions
can be answered there.  There is even a file for what you need to get from
the donor car.

I'm in the process of putting a EJ22 engine from a '90 Legacy into my '87
Westy.  I am very excited to get it running.

Andrew
