joshsmith3662 Posted June 8, 2025 Share Posted June 8, 2025 (edited) Hello thanks for reading! I have a 07 Outback with an ej25 that has bad crank bearings. I picked the car up for 300 bucks and want to get it going. I found a avls sohc non turbo jdm that u want to put in it. Anyone have any tips or suggestions? I’ve searched the web but haven’t had much luck. The car is in beautiful shape for the age and mileage, would like to see it running instead of going to scrap. Thanks again!

montana tom Posted June 15, 2025 Share Posted June 15, 2025 Confirm that your JDM has (VVT) variable valve timing heads; if not, use only the short block and install your heads with MLS #642 Subaru turbo head gaskets. Remove all the JDM external parts. Strip it down to a long block and install your original intake & other parts. Confirm your crankshaft sprocket is the same as your original; if not, use the original. Be sure not to damage any ears while removing from the crankshaft. Only install the original equipment timing belt and all new components. Use only an original equipment (OE) thermostat, not an aftermarket one.
