I have a couple of people interested in buying my 2.0 4cyl. And I need pricing advice.

It is a GA motor from a 74 with about 8k on a rebuild (to 2.1L) for which I have no documentation, just what the P.O. told me. It is fairly clean, with a leak at the taco. When I pulled the motor it was running well with a pertronix and even though the 36idfs are on the small side, they do have 32 venturis. I was running 47 idle jets and 145 mains. Performance is stockish, I assume it still has the FI cams.

My intent was to put it back in the car, not sell it, so all I have is a short video I took from inside the car after I tuned it up. Now that I am so far into the rebuilding of the chassis I am just gonna put a six in it.

I do not follow 4cyl pricing. Does asking $2400 seem reasonable with clutch, stainless heat exchangers, and muffler?

Interested in it for my '74.

Seems fair to me, the h/e's add some extra value for sure.

I think that's fair. Maybe even on the low side. I'm sure you will get a strong response if that is the price you're posting. Seem like a few of these have come up and passed on since I've been putting mine together and I'm so far into my project, that it's not for me, but I'm sure it could help out someone out there.

UPDATE...

Well, I'm a new owner of this 2.0 complete drive train, practically bolt in ready less exhaust. Ed turbo and I picked it up yesterday.

Andrew was very easy to work with and I couldn't be happier with transaction. Cool teener, although he has a sick 911 also.

His 3.2 SIX project is well on its way and I admire his hands on approach. Looking forward to meeting up with him again.

looks good to me. You will need a 1.7 muffler and hanger.
