Tony,

Thanks, feel free to PM me. I'm not a Subaru expert but I'm learning. Yeah a plan is a good idea, it's taken me months of thread reading before deciding which will be the most cost effective option. I was worried about the HC giving me problems , although some folks live with it. Depends on location.

Oh I don't have an engine winch. I just removed the X member/ suspension and dropped the engine down on a trolley jack then onto an old tire. Then dragged it out. Intake has to be remove first for clearance.
