I am curious. Not that I need it yet but what is the ballpark cost for a 2.0 rebuild (done by a shop). I know there are many variables involved and options to consider but just a ballpark with a decent core to start with. I am thinking about 3k... What do you say? Thanks - (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

/4 or /6 ?

i think you're about 50% low on a /4, you can easily double it (and then some) for a /6.

depends a bit on what it actually needs and if you mean a top-end or a full overhaul.
and to a certain extent, what part of the country you're in, how big a hurry you're in, and how much head repair you need (seems like most Porsche 2,0 914 heads need at least some).
