Hello all,
Need your opinion on what it would cost to have my 1.7 rebuilt. I want to keep it stock. Thanks in advance for your oh so gracious opinions. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

When you say rebuild, do you mean just refresh it or rebuild the whole thing? There are different options for rebuilding in some people minds. There is reringing the engine which means just hone the cylinders and install new rings, there is replacing the pistons and cylinders with new ones and there is rebuilding the whole engine with all new parts. The latter will cost you a few dunkets. Pistons and cylinders start around $350 and go up from there. Machine work on the heads will set you back anywhere from 200 to 500 for the pair. Case work and crank machining will cost you about 65 to 90 bucks. Then there is the cam shaft and all the bearings and gasket set. Its all in what you want to do and how much you want to spend.
