Picked up a motor and FWD 4EAT from a '90 legacy with about 180k miles on them for $100. appears that the motor was cared for fairly well while it was in the car, but has been stored very poorly. so some brackets bent/broken, and a few things dried/rusty (mostly tbelt pulleys). Started tearing it down the last few days:

got it unloaded, and started taking some things off to ease the trip down into the basement:




Subaru timing belt.....possibly original :eek:




got it in the house, and set up on the bench:


a table just for the engine:


pulled the flex plate, and found this......somebody must have dropped it through the access panel.


one of the mounts where the PS bracket bolts to the block is broken. nothing behind it though, so I'm thinking I'll tap threads in there, and run a slightly longer bolt.


still got the crosshatching:




Came with a power steering pump, pulled it apart, and it's in great shape. which is awesome, because mine is.....well.......not
