Time to pull the motor
I'm going to be pulling my engine so that I can replace various items including
Timing belt water pump thermostat engine mounts I'd like to know which seals I can replace simultaneously, and easily. I'm not looking to do a full teardown. I'm under the impression that I can do the main seal, cam seals, and cam caps. What about rear main seal? Also, what part numbers from Subaruparts.com are they, and what quantity do I need? Thanks!

subaruparts.com has a full gasket set you can buy which (I believe) includes everything for a full gasket and seal replacement.

SVX10, why would you want to replace the cam caps? I didn't think they were wearable parts....are they normally replaced?

Tom, perhaps we are referring to two different things. From my understanding the cam caps are simply the caps that secure the camshaft to the cylinder head. I do not see how the cam caps would leak? Perhaps you were referring to the bolts with the rubber gaskets that secure the valve cover?

cam caps I am referring to are the plugs that seal the top(intake) cams. Caps do wear though as most of the load of the cam rides on the cap

The end caps are easily replaceable and should be anytime you are in there anyway.

No way there is equal load. Take a look at the journals and you will see it is about 1/16th of an inch on the head side while the cap is closer to 1/2"

Thanks for the input
Thanks for the input everybody. I'm not going to get the entire seal kit, though, as I only plan to replace the front and rear main seals (is there a front main seal? I couldn't find it in the subaruparts.com diagrams).
Here's what I'm getting so far Water Pump Thermostat Thermostat gasket water pump gasket Timing belt Cam plugs Radiator hose inlet Radiator hose outlet Oil seal (part # 806786040 - I THINK this is the rear main seal) Oil Seal (part #806733030 - I THINK this is the front crank seal) Oil seal 32x45x8 (part #806732150 - cam seals?) Valve cover gaskets Any critical seals missing that I might as well do while I'm in there (remember...I'm not taking the engine apart...)? Mat

You shouldn't have to pull the motor to do those, with the exception of the rear main. While you have the motor out, it'd be a good idea to also replace the torque converter seal in the transmission, it's not that expensive and it's just as much of a pain in the ass as the rear main if it starts leakin.
But all that stuff is A LOT easier with the motor out, I'd also do the spark plugs as well.

The shop I work at is uber busy right now, but it'll be dead in Jan/Feb. I plan on pulling the motor out of the SVX for a complete seals/gasket job, T-belt, water pump...Before Feb 23rd though, because I'm doing a performance winter driving school
