I saw an EG33 in an airplane once. It was a picture online.

Re: What else have you fitted a EG33 into?
I mentioned that above Phil; chromed manifolds, the works. Looked great.
I also forgot one guy used an SVX engine to make a motorbike, or rather a trike, a three wheeler. There are pictures around. It would be an interesting machine, 230 hp in a chassis weighing not much more than the engine and box. Joe

Re: What else have you fitted a EG33 into?
Wouldn't suprise me to see one in a boat or a plane. BMW= "Barvarian Motor Works" inwhich the orginal company was an aircraft co. If it is a well constructed piece of machinery, why not. Carl Benz in vented the Boxer engine.

Re: What else have you fitted a EG33 into?
The EG33 is commonly used in aviation as is the EJ25. The boxer layout works well in planes.

Re: What else have you fitted a EG33 into?
I haven't done it yet, but here's my future intent with an EG33 swap.
I have a 1972 Toyota Corolla station wagon (parents bought it new). Pretty rusty, so it will get nearly completely tubed out/caged. It'll get a wide body kit. It'll get add on aero 'aids' circa 1986 Group B rally style (think Peugeot 205 T16). It should weigh about 1500 lbs, soaking wet.... I will use a Mendeola off-road straight-cut dog engagement transaxle, with a Subaru adapter plate, and install the EG33 as a mid-engine/RWD setup in the back of the wagon. I'll throw everything at the engine I know how to, but still keep it N/A. I'm hoping after some more R & D with Jack's Impreza and another project car, I will have the know-how to get about 450-475 whp from it. Then I'm going hillclimbing (tarmac) with it. |

^^^ I LIKE the way you think Bob My thoughts were along the same lines but using a GC/GF?GM Impreza wagon shell.

Re: What else have you fitted a EG33 into?
I only decided the Corolla because I already have it, and it's uber-lightweight. It weighs 1970 lbs stock, fully street legal. I'm pretty sure the EG33 is lighter than the stock 2TC engine (iron block) so if I can hit my target weight I'll have about a 3.3:1 power to weight ratio. About the same as a 400 lb bike with 120 whp.

Re: What else have you fitted a EG33 into?
There's a REALLY cool thread here where a guy installed an EG33 into a Porsche 911. I remember because the thing sounded like pure sex!
