Greetings to all.

One of the guys at Rennlist pointed me in your direction & I'm hoping to get some advice...

It's soon going to be time to rebuild my engine and I'm looking for a reliable supplier for a long block. As the title above says, I have a '76 2.0 liter. I was thinking of ordering from GEX but having recently done some research, that isn't sounding like a very good idea.

Any suggestions, advice, comments? Thanks much.

Phone your local Porsche dealer and ask them but it probably doesn't include all the fuel injection stuff. Don't let them tell you it's not available ... I contacted the Porsche dealer here too and they said it's retail price is $ 5773.14 (Cdn) exchange.

Geeze!

I'm not charging enough for my longblocks!

My price is a bit better than half that price.


I bet it's not a "new" engine but a rebuilt.
Do they ask for a core?

They rebuilt all of the North American VW T1 and T4 (including 914) engines in Toronto for years. They don't rebuild them anymore, but they have a whole bunch of them in the werehouse in Ajax. (Ontario, Canada)
