sounds good. do you know a good Subaru guru near us that can remove the 2.5 heads and manifold on my 2.2 engine and install new heads and manifold. oh and while they are at it maybe install the 2.2 in my brat i have the harness and adapter plate.heck they can even put my 4 speed manual transmission and rear diff in also .... i don't know anything about engine building and less about how to wire up the 2.2. harness , the sooner i can get this done the sooner i can get the ea81 engine and Weber to you ! i was thinking about calling fixmysuby.com or another local shop but don't know if they do that kind of work. thermal

Pooparu can you please let me know the contact info for the person that did you upholstery . macco is done with my brat and i hope to pick it up on Thursday ! thermal

looks awesome i hope they paint mine that nice

i thought you where the same matt in portland that sold this to me.....just seemed odd that you have the same name and live in the same city and spoke of the same engine and with reply's like i know nothing and i can not confirm nor deniy that i might have put phase 2 ej25 heads on a ej22 block in a 2.5rs ..............my bad

so what you are saying is you burned me for 700.00 ?

so matt aka mellow65 you are the one i bought this engine from, whats the deal with it.

Is the motor running off a map or a maf? i dont know what those are !

well the exhaust ports have 2 holes in them so i think its a duel port.?

Numbchux thanks for the reply. i should have researched the purchase a bit more before dropping 700 on the engine........ i have no idea what harness i have that came with the engine but is their a way to make it work ? do i need to sell the engine and buy another one ? darn it i did it again and i thought i scored but it looks like i messed up big time. dam dam dam

Turbone that will be cool as i plan on doing the swap around the same time. i ordered the adapter kit from sjr and have the engine and 4 speed tranny and rear diff so far. i sent the harness to numbchuck so i hope by this winter i have everyting i need for the swap.

thanks for the link. i have done a lot of searching on the board and cant find any info on 2.5 heads on a 2.2 engine. i just want to know if i got burned or if this has been before.

i am getting ready to do the 2.2 swap in my 83 brat when my friend saw that the manifold looks different then his. the engine was just bought off craigslist and is a out of a 1999 Subaru Impreza and is a phase 2 2.2 with what we discovered has 2.5 heads and manifold . my question is has anyone heard of this being done ? if so did it work or add any horsepower ? thanks .. thermal

Thanks for the reply. i will send you the harness as soon as i get your addy. Dave
