If memory serves from experts' posts you MUST NOT regrind an Impreza crank!!!

Call David at Api and ask for his advice.

Probably last you at most 3 thousand miles - best get a short block mate!!!!

everyone 'in teh know' says do not regrind a Subaru crank.

The reason being is that the price for a new crank (from the right sources) is not much more than a re-grind, and then you can use stock bearing sizes too.

No need for a short block if it doesn't need it

Do not regrind the crank, unless you know how to clean it after.

mark@lateralperformance does cranks at reasonable money
