No, I'm not dropping the rotary swap it's just that I found this on e-bay and it is so tempting. I hope someone here ends up with it and can then post running videos for the rest of us to enjoy. Take a look:

There are quite a few performance modifications available for the H-4 models, however modifications for the H-6 engines are becoming more common every day. Some companys have begun developing improvments for the EG33 recently. As far as the H-4 engines being more durable than the H-6 engines... That's simply not true. The EG33 engine is regarded as one of the most durable engines subaru has ever designed. They simply do not fail except in cases of gross neglect. I drive a 92 SVX on a daily basis which has an EG33. The car has 210,000 miles and never misses a beat. The EG33 is a fabulous engine. This, of course, does not mean that the 4 cyl engines are bad. All subaru engines are very reliable and run for a long, long time. I noticed that a member of your forum has done a conversion using the ER-27 engine from a subaru XT6. This engine is of the previous generation "EA" series, and is not as reliable as the newer generation "EJ" series like the EG33. You can find out more about the EG33 SVX Engine by going to this link: http://www.svxengine.741.com/ . This is part of a special magazine "Road and Track" published at the time of the SVX's introduction. It gives a fairly detaied look at the EG33's features and durability. Mike |
