If you do a search on engine swap i am sure the is loads of threads in the archieves. The search facility is located at the top of the screen about half way along the yellow options bar.

The easiest way to do it is to use the sti bottom end and bolt on your heads and inlet.

You dont state what year and if you have an aftermarket ecu to run things.
