crazyhorse001 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 First off, my wife would KILL ME! Now, in 20 years when someone pulls that motor to stick into another Subie they'll LOVE seeing her name on the valve covers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezapar Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 It was one thing carrying it in in boxes, but now that it's assembled, she's gonna have to help you carry it out to the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonicfrog Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Awesome! The names on the valve cover are so over-the-top! If this isn't true love, I don't know what is!!! But if you guy ever separate, will there be a custody battle over the engine???:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsoobdude Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 nothing is better than legos for x-mas:headbang: I second that! Rebuilding an engine is second, especially in the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86BRATMAN Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Nothing says "I Love You" like a name on a valve cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Wish I could just spend one day inside tinkering with a subaru motor. I have a pic on my old computer from where someone was doing timing belts on an EA82 and the previous owner wrote on the inside cover:"Poor Sucker".

Zefy Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 sweet... i really like the book sitting beside the disasembled motor that reads "what's wrong with my car?":-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry DeMoss Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 That is really cool that your gf let you guys rebuild it indoors! My wife would not allow that. I tried carb center peice on the table once and that didn't go over well even though it was pretty. The big question is: Will the motor fit through the door way?

Major Lazy Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Will you adopt me so I can move in and sleep on the couch and watch the TV? I will bring my own engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great and so true. I'm dreading the day I have to do mine. As already mentioned earlier, hope you have a way to transport it out of the house and good luck.

4x4_Welder Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Doesn't everybody rebuild their engines in the living room? It's about the only place you can work with wrenches wearing only socks Naked blets YAY! Naked legs BOO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveT Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Excellent. Reminds me of my first engine rebuild. 1976 wagon. 1400cc engine. Rebuilt it in my kitchen, on the heavy duty table I had made. This was, of course, before marriage. Now I have a big insulated garage, soon to be heated.
