IAG 950 EJ20 2.0L SUBARU SHORT BLOCK


RACE ON SUNDAY, WORK ON MONDAY

The IAG 950 EJ20 Short Block is the ultimate "weekend racer" block. Built to withstand up to 950 BHP, this is our strongest "Street" short block offering. The IAG 950 short block features +2mm IAG Spec H-Beam forged connecting rods, IAG-Spec JE Pistons with electroless nickel plated coating with H13 tool steel wrist pins, and our venerable "Fire-Lock" head gasket system for 14mm head studs. Each IAG 950 short block is hand assembled using ACL or King rod and main bearings. This combination of parts makes the IAG 950 the perfect block for drag or road racing. These blocks are ideal for EJ20 WRX owners looking to race their vehicles on the weekends and are designed to be used with EJ20 2.0l cylinder heads.

BUILT WITH 100% NEW COMPONENTS

The IAG 950 Short Block starts with brand new Subaru 2.0L engine case halves. Our machinists machine the assembled case halves in our Haas VF-4SS CNC mill to accept the IAG Closed Deck inserts, transforming the block into a solid deck. Next, a deck pair of deck plates are attached and the short block is bored and honed to 92.5mm in our in-house Sunnen SV-30 computer controlled cylinder hone. IAG's in-house honing process allows us to set custom piston to wall clearances to ensure quiet operation and reduced oil consumption. The Haas mill also cuts a groove at the top of each cylinder to accept the Fire-Lock head gasket rings and drills each head bolt hole for 14mm head studs. The modified case halves are then assembled using a new Subaru EJ20 2.0L crankshaft and IAG-Spec Tuff H-Beam +2mm connecting rods with ARP 625+ rod bolts. IAG Short blocks feature ACL or King Race rod and main bearings and are all balanced and blueprinted. Finally, the case halves are sealed with new OEM main/case bolts and sealant.

NEVER WORRY ABOUT HEAD GASKET FAILURES

The IAG 950 EJ20 Closed Deck Short Block features our propietary "Fire-Lock" Head gasket system. This system has been proven in our record setting race cars to be the strongest Subaru head gasket system ever produced. To achieve these results our engineers separated the combustion chamber sealing from the fluid sealing aspects of the head gaskets. Our machinists carefully machine a lip at the top of each cylinder to accept the "Fire-Lock" ring. With the ring locked in place, it stands proud above the deck, providing a superior seal. The separate gasket bodies take care of sealing oil and coolant passges and keeping them out of the combustion chamber. 14mm Head studs (Not Included) hold the assembly together.

CLOSED DECK FOR EXTRA STRENGTH

Our unique closed deck system significantly increases the strength of the OEM case halves. This process supports the cylinder walls at the top of the case in order to prevent flexing and possible cracking where the case bolt reliefs are cut into the back of the cylinder wall.
During the installation process we machine the assembled case halves in our Haas VF-4SS CNC mill to accept the IAG Closed Deck inserts. Once the case has been machined we heat it in an oven while freezing the specially machined inserts with liquid nitrogen. The inserts are then pressed into place and then machined to a mirror finish.
The unique inserts feature small passages that allow needed coolant flow to the deck surface. This means that the closed deck system does not affect the block's cooling ability and will not cause overheating, even in daily drivers.
