Would a 2.2 longblock be worth purchasing for $500-$600? It is described as needing a rebuild and comes with only the tin, dizzy, turbo covers. What kind of carbs could be purchased? Would it be better to find a one complete and pay the big $$$$?
This would be for a 914 conversion. Your thoughts? |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) Find a runner. The engines I usually find are of ones from 911's that get upgraded to 2.7's etc. 2.0's and 2.2's should be plentiful as complete runners. The carbs are too small to use on 2.7's out of the box and the dizzy's are different, so most pulled engines are left intact less exhaust etc. if someone has pulled all the "stuff" off, it would make me wonder why. Engine toast or something? rebuilding a 2.0 or 2.2 isn't really worth it since you can then pick up a used 3.0 at that point. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)
