I have a complete 2.0L motor from a '73 914 that I'm considering selling on ebay and I was wondering what a fair price is for the motor? The motor turns over freely by hand and I have all of the original fuel injection components but the MAP sensor is no longer good and it will definitely need new injectors.

This seems to me to be a really, really tough question. If you were a buyer, I would assume the price would be dependant upon the condition of the heads, compression numbers, and general wear. All of which are difficult to assess in an engine on a pallet. If I buy an engine and the heads are cracked so badly they are unrepairable, then what is the value? Then again, if I buy an engine that fires right up with good compression numbers the value is vastly different.
Seems to me it's a bit of a crap shoot... Eric |
