Mounting the EG33 subaru engine is a big project the more I look at it and take measurements. The width really is a tough one to get around. It basically makes you redo the frame rails, brake master cylinder, steering linkage, and TC rods. I'm still very much interested in this! I just need to get all the pieces lined up to pull this off as I don't want to start and give up half way through.

So far I have:

Wilwood reverse mount pedal assembly:

I'm going to high mount the steering rack and flip the tie rods so they go down into the steerers the the struts. This should straighten out the steering linkage and allow it to go over the top of the motor.

I'm going to move the TC rods forward like a 240sx.

I haven't figured out how I want to do the frame rails. I can widen their spacing, but then I lose tire clearance and turning radius.

One step at a time I guess. I need to yank the L28 out and start cutting
