Ringing around for a stuffed 22 or 23 would be a cheaper option....I picked up my 22 for $50 and it turned out to be fine, it just had a bit of foil, possibly from a cat converter, caught in the exhaust wheel. Took the P20 off, ceramic coated it, wacked it on the VF34 done! Put the P18 onto the VF22 and sold it for $600 |

and it now lives in Canberra, sitting in a box as my spare.
mattmy99, are you fitting the sti bucket OVER shims with the Cosworth cams to your 99 heads? If you are not then the high lift could cause you to drop a shim. Be warned, the standard heads are shim over bucket and prone to doing this with higher lift cams.

update
It's been a while, so i thought i'd give a quick update.
Have finished most of my shopping for engine bits. The list so far: Tomei copy un-equal length headers Cosworth 272degree, 10mm lift cams Cosworth valve springs Cosworth sump baffle Sard 850cc injectors Genuine Subaru: Gasket & seal kit All coolant hoses Timing belt Thermostat Idler pulleys water pump oil pump The heads have been ported and polished, and the intake manifold match ported also. My doors had a number of shopping trolley dents, and were generally looking 10yrs old, so I've bought 4 new doors and front fenders/guards from Subaru. I also picked up new door/window rubbers and gx roof rails (without the roof-rack mounting holes) The body is 90% completed, and is looking incredible! Photos just dont do Benson's work justice. The paint job is amazing! I'll wack a photo up of how it's looking at the moment. It looks blue... it is, but has a teal/aqua/green metalic fleck in it. It's so glassy, and looks amazingly deep. Couldn't be happier! |

on this topic - for my build.. what are peoples recommendations for cams on the 207?
If iI do buy some - i'l be buying Kelford. I'm looking at the 264 / 264 type or should I be looking at 250 / 260 duration? http://www.camshaftshop.com/camshaft...baru-camshaft/ |

Considering the rest of the setup I'd be thinking 264 would be a minimum?
272 is the goer IMHO. What does your workshop recommend?

Thanks mate
The dash (and all other plastic parts) were sprayed by Benson BBK, with vinyl paint i bought from Automotive paint tools & equipment (APT&E) in East Cannington. The seats, door trims and roof lining are being done by JC trimming, and the false floor is being made by Beyond Customs in Morley. |
