Recently purchased an EJ25 NA long block from Fairfax. Spoke a few times to Dennis who was knowledgeable, honest and helpful. I am in WI and Dennis was able to ship the motor to me in a very timely manor. I am a Subaru technician and made it clear that I needed a healthy short block. Upon receiving the engine I stripped it down to the short block. I see no signs of spun bearings, excessive piston slap, or other catastrophic engine faults. I am happy with the engine I recieved. I can try to update this review when I get it all back together and running. This engine hasn't been produced in well over 20 years it was hard to find a running healthy engine. Big thank you to Dennis and Fairfax salvage. Update Engine has been put back together without changing anything on the short black. I cleaned the heads and revealed the engine. No catastrophic failure. Engine is running great. Thanks again to Fairfax Salvage.
