Picked up a short block today was told it was a 99 ej25 phase 2 block with 65k miles, he said it was his friends block and that it has only one spun bearing, he planned to rebuild it for his impreza but ended up getting rid of it for some reason. Looks legit but I guess I'll have to break it down to see. It only cost me $100 but I had to get it from Algonac which is in the middle of nowhere if any of you are from the east side you might know what I'm talking about. Got a water pump and 9mm oil pump with it too.

What do you guys think?

Rod #4 what he said was the only issue

Ad long as the cylinder walls are fine and main bearig journals are good. You should be fine. Why is a piston missing. Or did u rip it out.

On another note I would call up Austin Jordan engines for Hot Tank services and machining. Obviously you are gonna want to have pistons with block for honing Cwalls to assure proper clearances.

Ok here's the deal.
I'll go there at 6:40pm tomorrow and let them know we need a table for 11 people ready at 7pm. If anyone can't make it and doesn't let me know before I get the table, I will keep track and redeem my free beers when I see fit

It sounds like we're gonna have a good showing this time around!

Just a little something, don't be surprised if they make you have 80% of your party there in order to seat you. I do believe they did this when we had big parties b.c people would show up early and take up a table for 20 when only 8 people show up causing them not to be able to seat paying customers.

We still plan on being there even though the weather is supposed to suck.

Yeah that's fine, I just don't want everyone to have to stand around for 20 minutes and THEN get seated. Also, any possibility of getting free beer

Well depending on the weather you may be getting 2 lol. We are getting snow pretty good over here right now. I think as long as we don't get any freezing rain we should be good to go.

I'm going to drive to Detroit tomorrow morning to attend the auto show. I should be back just in time if weather permits it. If I'm late or don't show up I apologize.

Speaking of Facebook, I don't know if we can create a group for West MI Subies? There already is a MI Subies group:

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=54972290010

I don't know if anyone on here is there...

For weekend meets, I was thinking either Sat, Feb 5 or Sat Feb 19...any opinions on what date works better? Our next weekday meet can be Tue Feb 1 or Wed Feb 2, unless you want to do Sat Feb 5 instead of the weekday meet...

Weekend of the 5th/6th is Ice racing at Turk Lake with the Furrin Group weather permitting. I went last year and there was quite a few subaru people that showed up there.
