Old ratty,

It’s a good idea. Don’t want to bore you with all my procrastinated ideas about engine. I’d do have a wbx core in garage which of course I should have rebuilt to a working motor, if I had the energy and skill.

I’ve been getting a lot of pressure from friends around here to use the subie 2.2 I’ve held on to ( in a legacy).

Tomorrow might be different, but I think it’s going to be that engine rebuilt. I’ll patch up my current wbx, new clutch stuff etc. And work on subie for a swap.

I know, I know….

Ab
