davebugs Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Going to look at one tonight and the car isn't there. Where is a #? I'm guessing drivers side bellhousing? Looks like interchange is 08 and 09. Anyone here need one of these? Guy tried to put this into an 00 Outback. Says the heads are differrent. I don't know. I've never done any major work on anything newer that an 02 other than maintenance on old GF's 06 Impreza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Im not following you well here. I assume you know where the EJ25 stamp is so I am guessing you are looking for the VIN stamp area, which is on the left side of the block on the bellhousing it would be down closer to the axle and very hard to see in car. I could see him putting the shortblock in easily but not the whole longblock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 Just got back. Found an engraved # under the throttle body on the bellhousing. Has 2 miles on it. Seriousley. Not even dirty. He had the intake off it to try and swap. I beleive he has all the axles too. Car was in a transporter wreck in 08. Has the starter and PS punmp as well, he reused the alternator. Anyone need this?

subsince77 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I might need that in about 250,000 miles. Maybe I should stock up now:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 I'm in a real delimma on whether to buy this or not. I have no use for it. But it's only got 2 miles!! Intake was off - along with plug wires from him trying to use it in a 2002. So it hasn't been run since sometime in 08 - for the whole 2 miles until the car was put on the car hauler. This guy had originally bought 3 of these. Sold one at the time, the other I don't know if he sold or used, kept this because he had an 07 which he recently sold. Tried to use it in the 02 and didn't wanna break down a new engine just to use the block assuming that would even work. Heads are different and have some sensors on them at the backs of the heads. Heck I can't even physically work in the garage at the present time. And don't work on stuff this new. But how many opportunities like hths come along?

lostinthe202 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Other than to flip it on ebay, doesn't seem like it's real useful to you. Looks like another case of the perfect thing at the wrong time, hate it when that happens!! Will- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
