what cars??
did any other cars come with the H6 3.3L in them, or is it just ours? my girlfriends svx is burning oil due to rings, and i was planing on getting a new engine to rebuild and stick in her car, and take the engine out of her car rebuild it and stick it into my car. but i dont know if i can find an engine around here.....

Re: what cars??
I think the SVX was the only subaru with that 3.3L in it.

Re: what cars??
Agreed. They did make a 3.0 H6 that they put in select Legacy's and Outbacks, but I'm pretty sure the SVX was the only car in the North American market released with the EG33 motor.

Re: what cars??
Yup...SVX only. Pretty cool, and very rare for a manufacturer to use an engine for only 1 model over 7 years.

Re: what cars??
My buddy has a 3.0 in his Outback. Uses timing chains instead of a belt. Pretty cool.

Re: what cars??
The EG33 was the biggest Subaru engine until the Tribeca came out. I like that idea too.

There is an SVX in Lititz at a salvage yard in the junk yard section of the forum. The guy is asking $500 for the engine 99000 miles on the odometer
