You’d never guess where this 3.5 litre engine swapped Subaru Impreza got its motor from. In this episode Jonny visited www.scoobyclinic.com to begint the engine build of his Talbot Matra Rancho Impreza body swap project. At the Scooby Clinic workshop he was offered the chance to drive a freshly completed big power (650bhp 650lbft) flat six twin turbo engine swapped Impreza. This is a flat six engine, fully rebuilt for big twin turbo power and more torque than a flat four boxer could reliably develop. VOLUME UP FOR THIS ONE!
