IAG 800 Series FA20 (12.5:1 Compression Ratio) Closed Deck Short Block 13-21 BRZ / FRS / GT86

This IAG 800 Series closed deck FA20 short block is for 2013-2021 Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S and Toyota GT86 builds. It carries 12.5:1 pistons, which IAG recommends for low-boost or stock applications. The closed deck, forged rods and improved head gasket sealing support higher cylinder pressure than the factory block.

Build details

  • Case halves: Brand new OEM Subaru FA20, machined for better oil flow; internal passages inspected and optimized
  • Closed deck: IAG Closed Deck Inserts that keep the coolant passages open while making the block a solid deck
  • Head sealing: O-ring grooves plus drilled and tapped holes for 1/2" head studs
  • Bore: 86.1mm, honed on a Sunnen SV-30
  • Pistons: IAG-Spec JE FSR 86.1mm forged, 2618 T6 alloy, asymmetrical skirts, ring set; wrist pins .905 x 2.250 x .210 in. with Tru Arc locks
  • Compression ratio: 12.5:1 on standard gasket thickness
  • Connecting rods: IAG-Spec H-Beam with ARP2000 rod bolts
  • Bearings: ACL or King XPG rod bearings; OEM or King XPG main bearings
  • Crankshaft: New Subaru FA20 (2020)
  • Hardware: Standard Subaru case bolts with OEM sealant; OEM oil plug pre-installed at the oil pan location
