Thanks ccrinc I'll look into it. Ron

I'm a lookin but good low mileage engines are hard to find. The only one available right now has 193,000 miles on it and they want $445. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Ron

Yes, Subarus' are expensive around here and even the older models hold their value quite well. There is no external rust what so ever on this Subaru. I'm the orginal owner and it has been well maintained over the years. I understand what you're saying about not putting too much time and money into a car with 267,000 miles on it. Thanks for your input. Ron

Thanks for the input. I've looked for used engines, and there a few around here but all are high mileage units. Subarus' are very popular here in the North country so parts are somewhat hard to find and expensive when you do find them. Ron

My 95 Legacy has 267,000 miles on it and just threw a rod, at least that's what it sounds like. I just put a used 71,000 mile transmission/transaxle in it along with a new clutch assy including a new flywheel. The CV joints and brakes are 15,000 to 20,000 miles old and the body and interior are pretty good (better than average), I've had this car since day one. So my questions are. How much money in parts would a guy have if he rebuilt the engine? I know this depends alot on what parts are replaced. But, assume bearings, pistons, rings, gaskets/seals, oil and water pump, timing belt, new valve train, plugs and wires? Where is the best place to buy engine rebuild parts? Thanks in advance. Ron
