Looks like your running the motor in the raised position like mine, if so the does the stiffy truss bar clear the clutch slave cylinder?turboedbug wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 7:13 pm mocking up some stuff.

Re: Got my ej20t
looks like you do have the thrust washer installed on the pinion side.
tomorrow i will assemble the same way you have yours and see how it looks.
I am installing a helical sti diff in mine. i still gotta get it machined hopefully i can take care of that tomorrow.

Cool, Thanks
What do you use for output axles, the snap in type like on the subarugears site? I don't have my Diff yet.

Re: Got my ej20t
I had the same issue and just drilled new holes for the horizontal bar further back. I also had to weld the tabs for the frame horn bolts to the sides of my engine mount. Doing that makes it a bit complicated to install but I needed the clearance.turboedbug wrote: ↑Tue Nov 06, 2018 12:17 pm

Re: Got my ej20t
I didnt reassemble it. I talked to todd about swapping to the high powered ring and pinion.
Now i am waiting for the other ring and pinion to get here.

Re: Got my ej20t
She really does fly. No runs yet. I need to build a cage and stop breaking things. I broke a transmission mounting bolt and I'm pretty sure that caused the shift rod to smack the torsion tube and crack the nose. And my clutch is slipping. I'll be pulling the engine for the 5th time this winter...
