Wouldn't have been an mls gasket by any chance, they are never recommended for linered alloy engines as funny enough the liner can slip.

Do the liners on a subaru have to sit proud of the block because of the block expanding quicker when warming up?

Things are on the roll with Pennine and the block is ordered and it will be pushed to 600 i hope

Is that on a 2ltr or 2.5ltr? :wonder:

its on the 2.5 ltr but I'm not on my AVCS heads as they are away at zen getting machined for my new cams. Unfortunately I,m only running sti5 heads at the moment so its killing me on accel and power :( :D

Steve,
Phew..... I was gonna suggest you go back to the drawing board if that had been on a 2.5ltr with AVCS! :D :D

stevebt 21 February 2008 09:17 PM

I,m looking forward to my heads going back on as 500bhp'ish on non avcs is slow IMO :D
