Street Spec Standard Shortblock

Our Stage 1 fully built street series shortblock supports up to 500bhp with proper tuning and supporting modifications. Our short blocks are race proven for durability and reliability. The street series is built for low noise, minimal oil consumption, and is designed to last years (not months like some of our competitors). Cosworth's specially developed alloy allows piston clearances to be kept low while the boxed-strut forging design and short pin length ensure the strength and stiffness necessary to withstand high power levels. Each short block is assembled from new parts in a dedicated clean environment by our two in-house builders with a combined Subaru race engine building experience of over 30 years.

Every build goes through a rigorous ultrasonic cleaning, measuring, and assembly process with each measurement logged for future reference. Components are weight matched and carefully machined and polished as required to achieve the desired tolerance. Bearing clearances are measured with calibrated Mitutoyo micrometers and precision Sunnen dial bore gauges and adjusted to within +/- .00015" by substituting bearing shells. Piston ring gaps are hand filed to within .001"of the target clearance which is based on the intended use and expected power levels. Low tension rings utilizing ring gaps developed through our extensive experience ensures reduced oil consumption and blow-by while keeping ring friction to a minimum.

The components used in this short block are as follows: EJ257 Type RA Semi-Closed Deck Block Case, Cosworth Forged Pistons w/ Xylan Skirt Coating, RalliSpec H-Beam 4340 Forged Rods by Saenz, ARP2000 Rod Bolts, ACL Tri-Metal Main Bearings, Calico-Coated Clevite Rod Bearings, Nitride Hardened Crankshaft, Block Plugs & Covers Included.
