I am trying to talk my dad out of rebuilding our motor 73 1.7 because I know it will be at least a year before he gets that thing done. Anyone ever hear of this company, seems like 1,255.00 for a complete rebuild is pretty cheap am I missing something?

Fair is fine but when someone advertises an engine "rebuild" for 1/3rd the price of parts alone, you've got to know that they are cutting major corners. You are going to get what you pay for. In general, one sholdn't buy a rebuild unless they get a complete build list of parts and the machining services done to the engine. |
