I have a 1998 legacy brighton with a bad 2.2l motor and manual trans.
I also have a 1998 legacy gt that has been wrecked with a rebuilt 2.5l and manual trans
I would like to know what kind of problems I might have if I put the 2.5l in place of the 2.2l
Some of my concerns are first the wiring for the motor, will it match, also brain, can i just unplug one an change the other on in, and also exhaust headers are they the same or would I need to change them.
What things would need changed and how much of a job is this.
Is this something I should consider as i can by 2.2l engines cheaper than the 2.5l so should I just go that route.
any one that has done this or knows anything that could help me is invited to do so. thanks
