Wow, that's a great conversion! Thanks for sharing it. I see the amount of work that went into the adapter etc. between the Subaru powertrain and the Buicl engine. Very well done!

I agree! VERY interested and will be looking up your thread on LegacyGT...(I am <30LegacyL> there and don't know how I missed this build.)
I have a 99 Legacy 5apd & NA 3.8/3.8 draw-thru and GN3.8 at home.....
May have an 04 Outback available for a swap as well.....
Thanks for sharing your amazing work Frank!
