Replacing engine parts can be very expensive and that's especially true when it comes to the engine block. As the core of your engine, the block literally supplies the heartbeat of your car but just getting to it is a complicated process and that can drive the price up even more. In order to reach the engine block, you have to remove a few things from it first before using a hoist to lift it out of the engine compartment. Once it is out, everything else can be removed from it and any usable parts installed onto a new engine block. After it is rebuilt, it is then lowered back into the compartment and everything can be reconnected to it. Not surprisingly, this adds up to a considerable amount of labor and money. With that kind of expense in front of you, you're probably looking for ways to save money but as a Subaru customer you obviously also care about quality. Fortunately, there is an easy way to save yourself money while still getting the quality and durability you expect from the Subaru name with a genuine remanufactured Subaru short block engine block.
Remanufactured Doesn't Mean Used
Don't let the name fool you; "remanufactured" doesn't mean "used". These aren't engine blocks that are simply removed from one vehicle and put into another. They are put through a comprehensive process that results in a block which meets or even exceeds the original factory specifications. You're still getting the same Subaru quality but since the engine block already exists, you're not paying extra to cover the considerable cost of pouring a brand new block. That can make a huge difference to your wallet. Since you purchased a Subaru, you obviously recognize quality and that's why you should appreciate the careful steps of the remanufacturing process:
Cleaning, Machining and Inspecting - It all begins with removing each piece of the engine. Every crankcase, crankshaft and connecting rod is then carefully inspected and cleaned before being fine tuned to meet Subaru factory specifications. They are cleaned a second time to remove any contaminants and ensure that the final assembly will be pristine.
Carefully Assembled and Computer Tested - Once everything is cleaned and inspected, all of the machined parts can be returned to the block using an exacting process. Each remaining component, from piston rings, piston pins and pistons to oil pan, oil pump and coolant pump is replaced with genuine OEM parts and the fluids are then filled. The entire engine is then connected to a computer which simulates real-world driving conditions to thoroughly test everything including oil pressure and compression at the maximum revolutions per minute.
