I have been working my tail off and saving money to build my 2litre motor this summer, so far i have saved $2500, If should have another $1500 in a month or so. However, I have been seeing 2.7-6 and 2.4-6 on ebay, the recycler and other places from $850.00 - $4000.
My question is - is it worth upgrading to a 2 litre from my 1.7, when a couple of thousand dollars more, i could get a six? And what is involved (price wise) to convert it from a 4 to a six. Give me some feedback - Craig |

You will be able to build a good 2.0 4 cylinder for $2000-$3000.
If you go to a 6 and have to do any rebuilding $3000 will not even begin to cover it. Engine gasket set for a 4 $40.00, for a 6 $400. New Ps & Cs for a 4 $400, for a 6 $2000-3000. Also with the 4 you can do a lot of thework your self. Ken |
