Interference problem?
Yesterday I removed the oil pan from my "02 WRX donor motor to pro-actively change the oil pickup. I also removed the windage baffle from beneath the block. I am noticing evidence in the aluminum block either of interference with the crankshaft throws or machining at the factory. I cannot lever the crank fore and aft enough for anything to touch the block. Am I just looking for trouble, or is the abraiding of the block a problem?

If you're talking what I think you're talking about it's machined the way. The pieces of aluiminum that support the crank bearings is machined on the sides parallel to the crank counterwieights after being cast.

What a relief! Thanks so much.
