So, just mount it backwards and it will turn the right way? Tell us where you plan to put the radiator and oil pan.... Now, putting an STI engine into a 914 is a MUCH more doable and viable option.

Just like the Subaru H-4, only.......... a 6.

Comes in the 2001+ Outback 6-cylinder models (LL Bean and VDC), as well as the 2006+ Tribeca and now the 2008 Legacy 3.0R.
