awsome…..This guy is a Subaru Master Technician and he makes all these
videos for free. How cool is he?
This guy is a living service manual… :D
If you have a certain mechanical persuasion, this is cool to watch…
…it also affirms how nuts horizontally-opposed (boxer) engines are.
“Okay, now we’re going to *put the engine block back together* around the
crankshaft.” How Subarus (and Porsche designs) don’t leak oil constantly
is beyond me.
Also, if you’re like me, you’ll spend about 15 minutes trying to figure out
how they’re going to put the wrist-pin in the piston & rod while it’s *in
the block*.
Ive used ultra grey on alot of sump pans on all types of brands, highly
recommended!
These videos are so awesome…love them, thank you both
37 idiots gave this a thumbs down. Unfortunately, you can’t fix stupidity.
Good job anyway. I love rebuilding engines, especially EJ engines.
“Sell it as a boat anchor” lol
That was therapeutic to watch.
I hope this guy lives forever.
1:03:49 That’s What She Said – Ha! =)
Very informative dissertation on the boxer engine as well as an good
assembly how-to for the EJ20. Thanks.
Great video I’ll be on the look out fir the disassemble video as I just had
my Sti built from dom at maxwell power. But I have my old Crawford short
block still that I wanna play with.
I’m in to computers and Subarus. Oh what heaven it would be to live next
to these guys! Great great job Carey and Mike! I’d like to know though
Carey how you talked Mike into this. He’s very patient with all of your
questions!
Great video! Went into this not knowing a thing about the short block.
After this I feel confident enough to re-assemble mine if I ever have to.
Mad job, very informative!
damn if you get an oil leak between the block peices you are up to some
serious disasemply for a fix hehe, you do not want that :P
I am 1 minute in the video and just realised what a blessing youtube is
this would normally cost X amount of dollars for some book you have to
strainyour eyes to read. If anyone uses a goddamn chilton’s you know
whatimeansss
This guy gets his drinks from Speedy’s gas station, he’s legit.
Thanks for the awesome video Carey!
This guys is PRO if he’s doing this on his driveway. I would never, ever do
that just because it would kill my back + exposure to foreign elements. But
Mike has my respect.
this might sound strange but those paper towels are something that everyone
needs.. love them
I am not building a Subaru engine, nor do I have any plan to; in fact, I
don’t even own a Subaru. But I still watched the whole video all the way
through. Excellent job!
man…… I am learning so much 🙂 great vid!
wish I would of watched this before my ej257 in my FXT went
i can’t believe that thing can put out 300hp. Its made out of aluminum, to
top it off, two parts are bolted together, wtf???
Wow, I wish all engine rebuild vids were like this and you were my
neighbour. As for the people with negative comments. They do not know what
they are talking about. A++++ for you and your camera man. The camera man
is interjecting some great points. From a guy with a tiring ’06 STI I may
want your services soon. Best of luck in the future.
reminds me of chuck norris
Awesome video! You helped me understand my car so much better. Thank you!
Best short block rebuild vid – thanks for the upload! All we need now is a
Subaru-Mike channel/show.
I’m pretty sure the 207 had forged pistons from the factory then again it
wasn’t sold in the us
Extremely informative! Thank you for a great video.
