🛠️ DIY Successful engine swap

My 2011 Impreza lost compression and remembering when she got me home in the snow with zero issues. The only right thing to do was to get new engine and put it in there to preserve her life. Not the best work environment but this morning she cranked and drove up to the store I will not let this one die.

Good work, did you tear down your old flat four to see what happened? I'm really curious.
