SageAbkatsor Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Has anyone had one of these short or long blocks in their vehicles for any extended period of time (50k+ miles)? Seems like a pretty decent short block options for the price, but cannot find anyone with a real world review at least not for a Subaru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
