Engine
Hi,
All Sti's do not have Red tops.
The way to tell a Sti is a 5th injector smack in the middle of the
inlet manifold pointing down into it (steel pipe)
Also looking at the front of the engine between the power steering
pump and the alternator you should see like a 1" square grid of
squares - like maths paper or like a 8 x 8 noughts and crosses
grid.
Thats a STi engine.
Then I'd reccomend Grade A subaru - type it in Google.
I bought a STi engine from them £1000 + Vat
Fired 1st time after I fitted it.

Acey give Andy a call a Scoobyteknix on 07788128845 and tell him Kristian gave you his number. His pricing is excellent and he will fit it for you if required. He's based in Fleetwood and can also ship parts at a very good price.

Cross hatching marks dictate closed or open deck block if hatching marks present then it is a closed deck block , sti and early wrx both have closed deck blocks . later models was only sti .Do a search on cross hatching marks or open closed blocks.
