thanks for the warm welcome and all the great advice. I'm going to start working on it tomorrow(head gaskets, carb cleaning, replace hoses/belts, and solder/replace a few wires) shouldnt be more than a half days good work.

I added some under off roading

just looking at one of these types of chargers LINK I'm not looking to purchase this exact one, the site is just prettier

Please tell me that tow bar is connected to more that just the rear bumper ?? The hitch is secured to the frame through a small rectangular hole in the bumper(kinda hard to see) wt type of rims u got?? they look even better than the speedies lol they are just the stock 8-spoke rims that came with i...

yes, mine was doing this too, also associated with water in the oil. The oil comes out milky white when you drain the pan.

thanks for the link, really good source of info.

Yea, I'm in the US. Amazingly I couldn't find any good early subaru forums stateside

yup thats the center spot that comes on when the hi-beams are turned on. I was planning on mounting a small winch and some off-road lights on the bar. I was also thinking about a lift, rims, tires, maybe a new carb and an electric supercharger. But for starters just new head gaskets and some clean up.

I don't know where to look for the stamp, but I'm going to be replacing head gaskets soon, and i'm sure I'll find it then. Thanks for the help.

thats what I was thinking too, someone was telling me that it could also be a 1.6L. But it's more likely to be a 1.8L. Just needed the 2nd opinion. TY.

Hey guys, I have come into the posession of a 1981 GL wagon. I'm not sure what engine is in this one. Can anyone help?
