June 19, 20187 yr Hey guys, I'd like to put a junkyard (run tested of course) EJ251 into my 95 legacy wagon. Not a full swap, just the long block. From what I've gathered in my reading today, I'm of the understanding that as long as I use the 22's intake, peripherals, cam (if the pickups are different) and crank gears, it's just plug and play. Is there anything I missed? Will the 95 ECM provide the change in maps and such to run the newer heads efficiently? Will I get CEL's for any reason? Do I need to uprade my clutch or flywheel to compensate? Things like that are what I need to know, and the only thing keeping me from mashing the "Place Order" button.
June 19, 20187 yr Author I also read something about having to make custom plug wires? What's that about?
