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.

Unless you can provide some assurance/history/real numbers for a prospective buyer, value as an "engine" is very limited. Couple years ago running basic stock 2ltrs were fetching 1K-1500. However, in the last 6 months I've seen more 2ltr motors for sale...cheap.

Parting will probably bring more, if you're up to the investment of breaking the motor down, and all the time it takes to market, sell and ship those parts.

If it was me, I would go for the quick sale and not look back. $500 as is
