Re: Timing cover (front/back/side) interchangeablity?

Even though one is gear driven and the other belt, who's to say the distance apart is any different. If you eliminate the gears, add a pulley and a longer belt you have the same thing. I'm not saying it will fit but, it's an idea that shouldn't be thrown out till it's proven. The SVX front cover alone is $90 new and legacys are a dime a dozen in the scrap yards.
