I pulled the heads off of my 2.0 today and found out why the PO had taken the motor out. Guess this solves the subaru conversion question for me. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif)

Clean it up a little.
Hard to tell how much damage. Might be fixable or worth some coin towards the other option. Andy, that's a normal color for florida cars. Ken |

Andy,
Yes, you are correct it has been sitting awhile. I bought the car 6 years ago just before a divorce and i'm finally getting a chance to work on it. I've been working on the hell hole and floor pans but thought i might tear into the engine to see what i was in for. |

Is that below the battery tray, or behind the passenger seat? M |
