Engine Rebuild
 

anybody have any ideas please

well i would have to say start from the ground up from the oil pan to the crankshaft to the rods to pistons to head

and you know about all the other stuff i presume that goes with it all cams, gasket, etc hope that helps


i'm doing that with my spare engine right now

Does anyone know of any places that do motor builds for relatively cheap. I've found some places online who say they will take your core 7M-GTE and build it to about 450 hp for around $3800. Is that cheap, assuming I do not have the time, tools, or skills to build it up myself? Thanks.

That is a serious hp gain for only $3,800.00! I would go for it if they are indeed truthful about the gains and price. Find out all the mods they plan to do and let us know here what they are to see if it is realistic or not. I know the turbo MK111 will put out that kind of hp with a new, bigger turbo but with a better exhuast system, injectors, fuel pump, head gasket, afm and probably much more. All that really adds up as far as price goes.

Let us know.
