huntinchuck Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I'm having a tough time finding a 2.5 engine for my 02 outback can I use 02 2.5 out of other models. Same question applies to trannies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 CRAZY there are 2 Huntington PA's listed with 2 different zip codes. Not sure why they are listed as one year. But I put one in a 99 FOrester 2.5 SOHC - it did require a different timing belt. So I'd say it's doable - hopefully someone else will chime in. I found this nead me for an AT for 1,350(not a bad price for a 2.5) they have 2 for 1,350 each and a 6 month warranty. A smaller family yard with the same folks working there for years. My preferred supplier actually. Did I mention 6 month warranty? Good folks to deal with. I've bought a lot of engines from them. Only had trouble with one (a 2.2 with bend valves I assume) and they handled it great. Maybe update your profile with which Huntington your in. Ilooked because I have North Huntington near me so I would have recommended Henderson for the engine and may have been able to give you a hand figuring things out.

Olnick Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Dave--I think the OP is in Huntingdon, east of Altoona. It's spelled with a "d" (but often misspelled with a "t"!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Nice catch! With a 'd' it's over 2 hours and 120 miles roughly to Henderson's (even though there is a town called Henderson near you). You can probably find one closer. I don't know why it's a one year engine. Maybe someone else knows so you know what may need changed if you can get a cheaper 2001 or 2003 lets say.

Different cam and crank sensor triggers. But if those were swapped, along with the intake any Phase II 2.5 or even 2.2 would bolt right in. Up to 2005. After that most enignes had AVCS (variable valve lift) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
