When you take your engine out. Do you put a board on the jack? I have bend my bolts trying to get the engine out. Do you use a special jack to get the engine out?

[@popester72]

Did you guys ever get the Subaru engine installed?

[@GarageTime]

Not yet, still gathering all parts required for conversion, KEP adaptor plate and flywheel arrived today and waiting on rebuilt engine (shipping any day now). We also wanted to get 21 conversion finished before getting another major project going. Videos will start posting on Subiswap in the new year. Should be fun. Thanks
