Have an adaptor plate, fly wheel and Subaru Impreza engine up for grabs.

The adaptor plate and flywheel have never been fitted and the engine although it looks a bit rough around the edges I`ve been assured was running ok when it was removed from the donor.

Will attach pictures if needed.

Looking at around £250 for the adaptor and flywheel and £150 for the engine.

Due to weight of items pickup in person would be best .

is this adaptor for the beetle swing/irs or bus boxes and which motor is it, Chimp was on about doing a swap over winter if he is still going that way.

At work at the moment so will check on the motor when I finish. As for the adaptor it was on my gearbox with the engine fitted to it when I inherited the chassis but aside from that is there an easy way to tell ?

99% you have a beetle box so it is an adaptor plate the bus ones I guess are a bell housing. I have never looked into this swap in detail.

Likewise and to be honest it's not a conversion for me hence the sale.
Will send other details later.

Just had a look at the engine and according to the id plate it's an EJ20 which i believe is a 2ltr lump.

just had a text off snoopy about this and it was something I wanted to do. But the funds have been used for something else. Need to save up again for the cage first. Like was said first come, first served, good luck with the sale.

Not to worry someone somewhere will find it useful, if not now later on.
