The PO of my teener had been quoted a price for a turn-key 6 conversion from Motor Meister. Had he not sold it to someone, he was going to go that route. The quote is for the choice of either a 2.4 911S or 2.7Rs engine. Parts came to $7995, labor to about $3200.
That's out of my price range for the foreseeable future, and at this point I'm not even sure that I want to go the Six route. BUT, that quote left me with a few questions: 1. What do folks on the board think about those price numbers? Like I said, I'd be looking for turn-key, I'm no where near the point of being able to tackle something like this myself. 2. I've heard a lot of souls on this board with only or mostly negative things to say about Motor Meister (did I read that they use used/reconditioned parts)? Anyone who has experience with MM care to chime in? 3. Let's say MM is not the way to go....and this is the main part of my question ~ what other options are out there? That's a lot, I know. But it seems like everyone likes to talk about Sixes (except maybe the Big-4-only crowd), so I thought I might get some good feedback. Thanks, and happy T-Day!!
