You can also do alot of the work yourself and have a shop assemble the bottom end for you. They are nitrided so they are very strong.Īnother note it is another level of complexity to do the bottom end, I would be less worried to tackle just a top end rebuild than an entire rebuild. Crankshafts are rare and expensive, luckily you only need one if the old one was badly damaged. P&C's can be rebuilt if you have nikasil's I bought a set from EBS for ~$2600. But I do agree it is a risk to build your own motor.Īs far as pricing I think for the machine work +20% would be close, best to call your local machine shop to verify. It's just the overhead cam's that create most of the complication, other than that its not too far off from a type 4. There are several people that are mechanically inclined that have rebuilt their own motors on pelican. I do agree it's not a cheap or easy task. rebuilding a 911 engine is not a trivial or inexpensive proposition, and not for the weak hearted.īut they are the best sounding automotive engine when done correctly bar none. So much experience goes into the proper rebuild that the average guy is going to miss something during the process, and then you flushed a bunch of money down the drain. To do a top end only is really a sketchy idea.Īdd to this that most of us.even the mechanically adept.would be in over our heads with a 6 cylinder engine rebuild. So now you're stuck with a rebuild on whatever condition engine you can fine. Good condition, low mileage engines are rare as can be. I think you're all kidding yourselves in this link. There is a lot of machining required, again quite expensive.
There's a reason for that cost.and it's not all labor.
Rothsport) will charge you $20k up to $30k to do a complete Many parts are worn out, the picture just gets worse. The prices in Wayne's book are very out of date.Įver price a set of pistons & cylinders lately? I'm going out on a limb here, but IMO there is vitually NO WAY you can do a "quality" rebuild of any 911 6 cylinder engine for $6200. This is a complete rebuild, only large purchase hard parts were the p&c's. Total parts and tools was $2,872 which includes $1,400 for p&c's. Looks like it is cheaper to rebuild a 2.7.īTW His total was $3,300 for all the machine work (includes valvejob, rods and crank recon, etc.) OK from Wayne's Book (pricing is 15 years old?), machine work you would do rebuilding a 2.7 but not on a 3.0.
