EJ236 De-Stroked detailed Engine Build for 03 WRX and First Start on E85

I go through the steps to build an Ej257 closed deck with EJ205 crank and rods de-stroked engine with Ported and pocket ported with bronze guides and IAG springs and retainers and install and start.
I tried to keep the length down but this is a long process.
I had some issues with my Main bearings because the case was so distorted and didnt know or I would have had it line bored while it was at the machine shop so I ended up using 2 sets of bearings to get close, the two narrow 2 and 4 were +.026mm and the rest were stdX bearings and they were that far out. If your going to build one have it checked for distortion, it may need line bored!
Let me know what you think! Thanks for watching!
