Hello All,

I am new to this form being a first time 914 owner.


I would like help finding a Reputable Engine Builder In the Los Angles Area.
I would like to have my 1973 2.0L Rebuilt stock or maybe about 2.2L.
I had a few recomendations only to find they are not building 4 cylinder engines any more only 6.

Any leads would be appreciated!

Thank you for your time.

Jeffrey had his engine rebuilt by a shop in I think the San Fernando Valley and can tell you what it cost if you keep it a 2L or just a little bigger. He says they are a VW air cooled shop and old school and very good.

Welcome to the madness. Lots of good information here. Lots of people who will rebuild your motor. I would suggest checking into the 2056 build and using the stock FI. I also would not limit your builder search to the LA area. Shipping a motor is pretty easy and not that costly. Please don't rush into selecting a shop.

our resident 2056 guru is McMark here. Original Customs in the real world. He builds the heck out of 2056 motors!
