So I would love to be able to keep this car for the long haul and rebuild it when needed. I really hope solidsnake11's modifications are a success because most of what he did to his block would be easy to apply. If I end up doing another rebuild I suspect I could apply his fixes and it would be my last rebuild.
You have hated on the Subaru engine and actively looked for every possible flaw since you joined here. Not for one minute do I feel there were not compromises or issues but when only the extremes are considered it skews the whole perception. If temperature is an issue for you then add an oil cooler. The car was sold as easily modded to meet individual needs so just mod it.


I am done with this yet again circular argument. Carry on with your application of worst possible case scenarios to everybody as if it is the norm.
