01 Outback Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I just had mine done at a local private shop. 6 hours of labor , new Felpro gaskets, new water pump, timing belts, serpentine belt. $ 980 out the door and my 01 Outback has never run better.

nipper Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thats a good deal for an engine that engine with lower miles then mine. i plan on keeping muy car to 300,000 miles or more so i dont want to deal with the blow by that will come from a HG job and relaxed piston rings at 195,000 miles. I also would go OE headgaskets and a valve job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fel pro gaskets are not recommended for the 2.5 motor. Oem or six star are the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
