Rooster2, the company was called Sand Stallion out of Arizona. (Multiple badges and a website on the car) They are long gone when the market crashed. So, I am having to go backwards on this. Good advice though! It will be a lot of research and time, but I will get it figured out eventually. On the bright side, I didnt pay $35,000 for it like the 1st guy.

Rooster Tail pics coming soon! I am replacing the tach (not working) and a couple other little things. I hope to be heading out to the dunes March 25th. The previous owner told me the turbo/engine is tuned to 4 psi boost. (I only drove it off the trailer) That seems very low to me considering the size of the turbo. However, he told me the owner before him had it tuned conservatively as to not cause any engine damage. 178 rear wheel horsepower according to the dyno tune report he provided. Again, seems a little low to me but input is appreciated!

I uploaded more pics of the engine to the same folder. I found various places of the engine block that resemble a waffle cone texture. Does that mean this is a stronger turbo block as mentioned above? Also, the engine does have an EGR mounted to the intake (not hooked up). Thanks to everyone who responded. Hopefully these pics can further elaborate. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DC0nq8TbIemrTVQrC9I07PqGFyuSs1LG

I recently just bought a sand rail with a Subaru engine. I was a mechanic for 14 years. (mostly on Honda/Toy) I used to go to Pismo Dunes as a kid, and now I want to get back into it. Here are the numbers I pulled off it so far: Casting Number on Bell Housing: 862780858711 Intake manifold casting number near alternator: EJ22 What can you guys tell me about this engine? (the good, bad, and the ugly. Don't worry, you wont hurt my feelings as I got a smoking deal on this thing.) Can you tell me what model car and year it may have come out of? The previous owner told me this is a 2.0 engine which I have a feeling is incorrect ... But that's why I am here. Thanks in advance! It's powered by a Link ECU 1st Generation aftermarket computer. Here are some pics also: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DC0nq8TbIemrTVQrC9I07PqGFyuSs1LG?usp=sharing
