are you going to retain AC when you do the swap? My AC didnt work when I got the car, and its not half bad with just open windows, so I didnt.

my friend and his brother drove down to Newark in their dad's old POS Oldsmobile stationwagon and picked up his JDM B16, and they had no problems carrying it or transporting it. An outback should be fine for the job, and carrying it shouldn't be hard at all.

damn i lifted the d16y8 out of a civic without that much struggling and im only 5'10" 165lbs, they arent that heavy, id say about 120 pounds at the most for a Y8, with the tranny is a different story. you can lift the b-series with one other person easily.
