I thought Subarus were confusing with the twenty variations of the EJ motor and the GC/GD/GM/G-whatever chassis codes but when I read these threads I'm totally lost. What I'm thinking of doing is buying a 325 motor for (my soon to be) 320 that I will build on the side as a project and learning aid because I've never built a motor. I've done head swaps, turbo swaps etc. but never built a motor.
I want to do as much of it myself as possible including head porting. From what I've read it's fairly easy to achieve 2.8l by just swapping different OEM pistons and a crank. What I need is clarification on what year and model vehicle these parts come from as well as any variations in the motors. Also, what kind of power comes from such a motor with a properly matched cam? What kind of compression ratios come from this type of build?
I look forward to learning more about BMWs and finally getting back in to a RWD car after owning AWD cars for the past four years. Thanks in advance to those that leave helpful information.
