Say Goodbye to Factory Flaws

Rod Bearing Failures
Often in modified or high-mileage engines; proper maintenance and upgraded components help mitigate this risk.
Oil Consumption
Some engines may consume oil, requiring regular monitoring to maintain optimal performance.

Precision Executed

The engine case, using seasoned case halves, undergoes a comprehensive bore and deck process. Precision boring and honing ensure perfect fitment and alignment, while torque plate honing further enhances accuracy—resulting in a flawless engine case built for optimal performance.

Unmatched Durability

At the heart of this long block is a new OEM Subaru nitride-treated crankshaft, engineered for peak durability and performance.

The Power of Resized Connecting Rods

Resized connecting rods restore original dimensions for precise fitment and optimal oil clearance, reducing the risk of rod knock and improving longevity. ACL or King hardened rod and main bearings further enhance durability under high-stress conditions.

Premium Wiseco Forged Pistons

Wiseco forged pistons offer exceptional strength and wear resistance, making them ideal for increased power applications where factory cast pistons may fail. High-grade piston rings and seals improve compression and oil control.

Remanufactured Cylinder Heads

Cylinder heads are precision resurfaced with valve lash set and a complete valve job performed. Qualcast steel valve guides and new OEM valve stem seals are installed, and the heads are assembled using Six Star MLS head gaskets, torqued to factory specifications.

Made Stout with ARP

ARP head studs are thread-rolled after heat treatment, increasing fatigue strength by up to 1000%. Essential for performance engines under increased boost, they provide superior clamping force and long-term reliability.
