Orejas pan dulce

Subaru’s EJ255 engine was a orejas pan dulce 2. The EJ255 engine had a die-cast aluminium block with 99. 5 mm bores and a 79.

0 mm stroke for a capacity of 2457 cc. The EJ255 engine had a semi-closed deck design whereby the cylinder walls were attached to the black at the twelve, three, six and nine o’clock positions. Compared to its EJ207 predecessor, the EJ255 cylinder block had a new high strength, cast steel alloy rear main journal to reduce bearing oil clearance during cold operation and, as a result, reduce vibration and bearing rumble noise during the warm-up phase. Furthermore, this reduced bearing oil clearance was maintained when the engine was at operating temperature. Each corner formed by a journal or pin and a web underwent a fillet-rolling process to increase its strength. The connecting rods for the EJ255 engine were made from forged high carbon steel, while big end cap dowel pins and set screws were used for accurate mating. The piston head and ring grooves were coated with Alumite, while the piston skirts had a molybdenum coating to reduce friction.

Each piston in the EJ255 engine had three rings: two compression rings and one oil control ring. Of these, the top piston ring has inner bevels and the second piston ring has a cut on the bottom outside to reduce oil consumption. The EJ255 engine had a low pressure cast aluminium cylinder head that was mounted on a head gasket which consisted of three stainless steel sheet layers. Each camshaft was supported at three journals, held in position by three camshaft caps and had a flange which fitted the corresponding groove in the cylinder head to receive thrust forces.
