Rebuilding junkyard engine


Recommended Posts

Thinking about rebuilding a junkyard engine where is a good machine shop in spokane?i only knew of one and now it is out of bussness also it needs to be affordable i know getting any major horsepower outta an ea 82 is pointless but what are somethings machine shop and parts wise could i do to it?

its gonna be a spfi motor out of a 88dl or similar

 

thanks

why not just get a good junk yard engine with good compression? get new valve cover gaskets, timing belts and front engine seals and call it a day. or install new headgaskets if you want to go all out. it's not too hard to find a good condition EA82. probably even cheaper just to find a beat up, rusted out, bad trans, or wrecked EA82 car and buy the whole thing for the good running engine.

 

i'm sure someone on here can recommend a good machine shop, definitely go with one that has subaru engine experience. calling the dealer might help, they can tell you what machine shop they send their stuff too.
