Does anyone here know if it is an open or closed deck engine in the 97
model?

heh, I can't tell you, I don't know enough about it... I have however
found that google was my friend after a few pages... "the ej25 is the
open deck non-turbo engine found in the rs(and early OBW). the ej257 is
also a semi-closed deck."

so it appears that it is most likely to be an open deck... now, just got
to find out WTF that means... from what I understand the open and
semi-open deck are easier to modify.

also from here.

"The 1997 year model change over date, "96.6.6", saw a major internal
and external redesign of the engine.
*snip*
After this time, all production engines are open deck design, including
the STI and RA versions."

although they are talking about the EJ20, the EJ25(atleast my one), has
the same bore, just longer stroke.
