Bob,
When you've got 200k on your engine, you can come back and tell us how
it LASTS. Until then, you're just hoping. We Subaru devotees KNOW our
engines will last, and we didn't spend anywhere near what you did. Mine,
with 30k, cost $800, and the pieces from KEP I needed to install it
brought the total to $2000. I can buy about three more of these engines
before I wind up spending what your engine cost; lessee, that's about,
umm, a million miles worth!
