Default Mid Engined Engine Options

I’ve started putting together some ideas and parts for my new project which will be along the lines of an open cockpit “LMP/Radical/Spire/Inverter” type car. I’m hoping to use as much Subaru running gear as possible. I despise bike engine cars so I’m currently thinking about using a 3.3 SVX or 3.0 H6 engine. My query is what needs to be done to bolt these engines to a 5 speed Impreza box. I want to avoid as much machining as possible if I can. I have to use the 5 speed box as this is the only box that currently can be converted to mid mounted configuration.

I don’t want to do too much too the engine tuning wise, I was thinking of a set of Jenvey throttle bodies, uprated exhaust and a different management system. Thoughts on tuning would also be welcome.

Cheers all
