FS: EJ257 Built Shortblock with hairline crack on 3rd cyl wal, Needs to be re-sleeved
Just as the title says. Got a EJ257 Shortblock with Wiseco pistons, Manley Rods, ACL Race Bearings and an OEM Nitrated Crankshaft for sale. So price has been dropped to 1000 picked up. 3rd cylinder wall has a hairline crack, needs to be re-sleeved. The block is still useable though.
Also have 2.0 WRX Bare Heads up for sale as well. Asking $400 picked up. SOLD!
Thanks!

No, nothing has been dissembled. However, Mike at GST confirmed it was a blown ringland. Everything else should still be intact and useable. Oil and coolant levels remained full.

makes for loss of compression, excessive blow-by, and scuffed/scratched/damaged cylinder wall.
