Suby engine questions (price and type)

[davetaylor]

those pics are the only ones worth looking at so far. the stock engine is sad, and the interior looks like wild boars lived in it. it sat for 13 years at a body shop and i drove it once and started taking stuff apart, so it might not move again for another 13 years! i still have to buy longer brake lines and such before it'll move again, but maybe it won't be too long.

right now i'm trying to do everything cheaply so i can save up for swap parts, but isn't the ej22t a dohc motor? i'm liking the sohc for easier fit, because i'm just trying to make a 15k mile a year car so i just need a reasonable amount of power with minimal cutting.

i wish i could afford the bug@5speed radiator/intercooler! i like no-cut solutions.
