EJ255 Shortblock with SOHC EJ22t Heads?
I'm in the process of building a car that is based off a lotus 7 chassis (see; locost, caterham, donkervoort) and I want to fit a subaru engine however a dohc will not fit without major changes to the chassis, I've done some measurements and have found that if I put sohc heads on they allow the engine to fit with only pushing the firewall back around 3-4 inches.
The block I am using is an ej255 out of a 2010 wrx, the heads are sohc ej22t heads off of some unknown car. Basically all I need to know is this. 1. Stock ej22t compressed hg size 2. ej22t combustion chamber volume. 3. If I used wrx or sti headgaskets do I need to make any modifications to the block or heads to run this combination. 4. I noticed the ej22t heads have the intake ports spaced out more for the spark plug hole, will these interfere with the stock ej255 pistons?

I'm going to stay with the ej22t heads. I can get them cheap and in good condition. Plus it will be naturally aspirated. If I ever turbo it ill run wastegate pressure on a td04
Thanks for the info |
