not shure but i may have a set of used rocker pannels that dont have much rust if any(need to go out and look at the car if they are ill cut them out if you want them...

yea but it will be an ff1.....

friggen sweet. nice save

yes would take several sets....

ok so i tried my best to get a good reading on intake and exhaust valves. here is what i found m motor intake had a lift of .205 exhaust had a lift of .209. now my findings were proabably a bit off by as much as .005. i think ill be splitting the block on the m motor to repalce the cam sprocket since it got hammered in the shipping process. so ill spec the cam out fully then. anyway if you have oem cam specs in a FSM maybe that will give us an idea or at least let us know if i was way out of the ball park...

ive got a set ill be pulling this week if you need some

no other info but its a short block right now so im going to measure the movement of the lifters in a rotation both intake and exhost and see what the lift is . if someone has a normal 1600 short block maybe we can get them to measure them as well at least then we could compair the two....

oh yea and mine is an early internal water crossover block

FWI on that 72 wagon Danny in TN (has all the nos stuff on ebay all the time) anyb)way he has NOS upper and lower tailgates if you need them. i hadnt seen your wagon before welcome to club..(tailgatewagon club) the only other 72 wagon i saw went to the crusher before i could save it but it was white just like yours....

this is an engine i got from danny in TN he sold me 2 1400s sight unseen one was a closed deck 1400( figured yea right but i better try) and when i got them in the mail i got a closed deck 1400 and a 1600 so when i saw this post i went out to see and shure enough its an m motor

huh wonder what is wrong with my setup. ill have to check again and get back to you. i assume your both running the early 1600 with the external water crossover. ? i tryed on the newer 1600. anyway ill check again.

Realy?? thats cool im glad someone is still driving it. thats one car i wish i still had free rang i know youguys are doing some cool stuff up your way how about post some pix some time....

more thoughts as for 5speed vs auto... i had a 98 impreza with ej22/5speed set up on 29in ssr's here is a vid of it. while the 5speed was fun going quickly (top of 1st gear or 2nd gear) it left alot to be desired when it came to slow going i had to hammer the car to do the fun stuff. i kinda wanted an auto so i could use the torque converter as my gearing you can crawl with it , i doubt you will want to hammer your car once its done. as for the grey wire mod it makes the center diff of the auto locked so its kinda like center diff lock. read more on it here http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-692680.html not a very good page but a start Pro of going auto you can crawl. cons wiring either way your going to have to do some customness to get the trany in the tunnel and lift ect...... as for the engine ej22 all the way, i would find a 97 or 98 22 as they make a bit more power. yes they are interferance but just change your belt and you will be fine... as for the turbo NOOOOOOOOOOO, i have a turbo car(ej257) and unless you want to spend lots of money to make this work forget it.... cons of ej22t, custom engine mannagment, crossmember fitment issues, only 35 more hp if you leave it stock if you boost the power up to lets say 300bhp then you need brakes axles wheels tires that can handle the power and suspension pluse here you go again spending lots of money, on another note i had a 1979 wagon 4wd with a ea81 in it plues the dual range from a 81 brat so from the interior it looked stock everything fit. it had lots of power (enough for its size) didint take much custom work as everything bolted in and it didnt destroy the car if you wanted to put it back to stock. now finding a gen one dual range can be kinda hard but now that i think of it this is the way i would go....... here is a vid of my ea81/79 wagon now this is when i was young and dumb so forgive me for the abuse the car took. it had some rust in the frame so it was doomed anyway but still kinda sad to look back at its beating. anyway the thing is still one of my favorite cars ive had....
