    Engine aquisition

    Hey guys so I am picking up a 99 forester real soon. The issue is I diagnosed it for a buddy that it has a spun bearing. Anyone have any recommendations on where to get an inexpensive replacement motor?

    Have you considered rebuilding the one that is in it?

    I have. That would probably be easier I just worry about what kind of damage the spun bearing did.

    spun bearing depending how bad probably only scored up the rod and crank a little bit.. A reputatable machine shop can easily grind, balance and polish the crank for a low amount and get you the proper sizes so you know what bearings you need to fit a new set of rods. Boom ready to go back together. Youngstown is not that far pull that bad boy out and bring it here I will get you hooked up
