Assume you have a good bottom end from a 1.7 and then, just to make something crazy up, you do a 1911 build using good parts from the go-to vendors at a 914 tech day(s).
What is the resulting 1911 worth as a long block? |

On another note. When I rebuilt a 912 engine we did the top end. The additional stress on the bottom finally cracked the crankshaft. So, the bottom end being "assumed good" can bite you.
Crazy thing was it still ran. Just wasn't quite right and you could see the end pulley move in and out slightly while idling. |
