"Fixing Head Gaskets: Ferrari V8 Swap for Subaru Rally Cars"

TL;DR Summary
Sam Albert of Dirtfish swapped a 4.5-liter Ferrari V8 engine from a California into a Subaru WRX STI, while retaining the all-wheel-drive system and gearbox. The engine had to poke out far beyond the front axle due to the Subaru method of driving the front wheels from the gearbox, but the weight distribution was maintained with a rear-mounted radiator. The car was entered in the Olympus Rally and although it broke, it will come back stronger and ready to compete in more rallies.
