Will any other Subaru engines be a plug and play? I saw one from a crosstrek that was reasonably priced. These fa20s range from 3-6 grand.

I think the crosstrek engines are FB not FA. It might plug but it definitely won't play. There are several posts about what will work in the 2013's. I think engines from 2013 to 2016. Most folks lean toward short blocks. Good luck.
