I'm considering replacing my engine with a subaru 220hp. Mine runs good except for that idle deal that I posted about earlier today. I want to sell the original engine. It has about 83K miles on it.

I think that's low. IMO, a complete, good running engine with good compression should go for $1000-1500. I'm talking full engine/drop in for someone. Sell while it is in a running driving car.
Just off the top of my head you could part it out and get around $1200: heads $300 case/crank/rods $250 complete FI with good MPS $300 2L tin $100 core P&Cs $75 flywheel $50 alternator $40 2L HEs $50 unbroken fan $50 |

Ummmm... I have seen way low mile 2.0s for less than 1500 right here in the classifieds, from people we know well, like Scott.

I have all documentation on it since I bought it about 8 years ago. My mechanic was a 914 racer for quite a while and only works on German cars here in Vancouver. I had a neighbor a few years back wanting the engine for a sand rail. He said they really like the type IV for quikness. I "think" he said they paid about 1000-1200 for a decent one and they would soup them up but it's been a while.
Thanks for the replies. If you have any idea on my idle prob, that would be helpful. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...=ST&f=2&t=17268 |

Thanks red but it's been tuned and the valves adjusted. The quirk of idle is the only thing I have to iron out. It runs great other than that. Old technology has a lot avariables sometimes. I wish I had the LJet. It was the better and more reliable of the 2 systems.

The good thing is it idles at 16-1700 when first turned on. I do know that the AAR isn't closing completely. Just found that out a day or so ago. I thought it was BUT, even tho I took it outta line the idle still doesn't go down (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) It's things like this that make me wanna sell it. plus the G Damn'd smoke..........
