$2000?? is this seriously how much they go for nowadays? My apologies if this is anyone on the board, but I can't imagine the price has gotten this high. For the money you would spend on the 2L/6, (including the cash on buying the parts needed to assemble it) you could almost purchase a 3.0L

Complete engine was what I was talking about. Case is 800, pistons 200, rods 150, cams 200.. etc.. all together it came out to 1900 for a full engine sans fuel and gaskets.
If thats the case, I'm kind of upset that I didn't jump on the original deal I had for a 2L /6

And its close by.. hmm Though, for 2k, I'll save up for the 3L
Hell, I have a 2.0 '68 T engine (less carbs & manifolds, flywheel) that I would let go for $1K......

If the case is aluminum and in good condition, it is worth a lot of money. I had a 906 spec engine built from a aluminum case with factory titanium rods. 914-6 2.0 L cases have their serial numbers in a different location than 2.0 L 911 engines. That is why 2.0 L 914-6 engines are appreciating.
That seems about right for a genuine 1970 914/6 901/38 engine. We've got one here for $2000, outright. We've also got another one that for some un-godly reason someone put '68 heads onto. It probably was put into a 911 at some point in it's life. That one is $1750. Neither of them has injection, or exhaust, but the blocks are complete. But bear in mind, we are the "Boutique" pricer in the game, so other shops may be cheaper...

Call the "Vintage" race shops. The 2.0 challenge cars that get built all have to start with a solid 2.0 engine case. I can beleive the pricing. I hope he gets what he wants for it.

I for one believe that disassembled parts, inspected, and if you can build-up your confidence that they are indeed usable, are worth more than an old running engine.

dude, you are on CRACK!! i couldn't give 2 original 914-6 motors away, much less sell them...i sold them with a huge pile of parts for 1000. and the one 2.0 914-6 motor was a great runner with like 30k original miles! |
Cool Matt, I'll be stopping by sometime soon to check on a few things, and generally bug you guys. Maybe tomorrow
