BuzzKutt12 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 What models will be a direct fit from a 93 Legacy L ? My body is trashed but my engine has less than 100,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 any Subie from '90 up to 99 with Gen 1 DOHC motor, with the exception of the 99 Subaru Forester. That model, and later Subies came with a Gen 2 SOHC motor, and won't accept your motor. The computer control system is different. I would recommend transplanting that motor into a 96 to 99 Leggie, or Outback Wagon. There are a number of cars around with bad 2.5 engines from blown head gaskets, that can be bought on the cheap. Your 2.2 will bolt in perfectly, and match up to existing wire loom. There is a ton of info on this forum about making this engine switch. Go to the "Search" mode on this forum to read all about it.
