I would love to do a bigger motor, thanks for the offer and the heads up. unfortunately my rust repair and fender/body work has gone well past my original budget. Good news is its being done correctly at Chris Foley's shop. I will always keep my stock motor since the car is a matching number car, appearance group car with special order rare color(copper metallic)- but I do eventually want a bigger 4 to have some fun with. rust repair sucks, but it could have been worse. and the motor tested out with good compression numbers 145- 150 on all 4 so I'm going to leave it alone, other than Chris just installed an aux oil cooler for me . The d-jet works great, but id like to do a motor with modern EFI- that may be my next project once my garage is ready for it-
How are things in KC? have not been there for a long time.- from MN originally, used to live in SW Iowa, and would go thru KC and go down to Arkansas to see my Aunt and uncle, but that was 20 years ago- been in SC now for 23 years! I do miss the Midwest but seldom get back there- I do like being able to drive the 914 mostly year round here though -
Good luck with the sale- I have not priced the components but you should not be far off- I bet if you used all that stuff and built a motor out to sell you would not have anyproblem selling it on the site. this is something I am thinking about doing in the future. either 2270 or 2056 builds to resell. biggest issue that seems to plague our cars other than the rust worms is having a good solid dependable motor to keep the car on the road!!

I'm toying with the idea of selling off all my 2366 engine parts. Was planning on building it, but I recently purchased a '73 with a (poorly) running 2.0. I'll begin tearing the 2.0L down shortly - assuming I don't find anything catastrophic, the 2366 will be for sale. Here's the details:
GC case bored to accept 103mm cylinders
2.0L heads bored and rebuilt in KC, Mo by Noland's
71mm crank
Stock 2.0L connecting rods
New SCAT C35 cam & matching lifters
New cam, crank and connecting rod bearings
Used JE 103mm pistons
Stock flywheel & pressure plate
Set of 103mm cast iron cylinders - these are used and have been honed, but likely need to be replaced
Complete set of tins, fan shroud, etc.
This is basically a complete engine kit, with only a few small components missing.
Looking to get $2,500 + shipping.
If my price seems way off base and you are interested, please shoot me an offer.
