SOLD- '87 3.2 Carrera Motor, 9K miles on rebuild Options

[Cairo94507]

Hello Everyone,

I could not resist the complete '95 3.6 motor Chris ( @tygaboy ) was selling a few months ago so it is in my garage. At this point, I have probably 99% of the parts I need to make the swap and we plan to begin work mid to late October. Of course I will start a swap thread when work begins. Consequently...

SOLD– 1987 3.2 Carrera engine with Motronic injection. 9K miles on a full rebuild by Bruce Abbott (flat6pac) on the Pelican site. Bruce has been building Porsche engines for over 3 decades and is well known and respected. I have all the receipts and photos of the actual build process. The only changes from stock specifications are 964 cams and a Steve Wong custom chip. This engine has run great since the day it was first started in 2018. We just did a valve adjustment about 600 miles ago. Oil/filter changed every 3K miles with Driven HR1 15W50 conventional oil and was last changed with valve adjustment. As most of you know, this car/engine has never been raced or tracked.

We plan to remove this engine toward the end of October. If you want to come hear it run, please feel free to reach out to me. I am posting some engine pictures here. Interested parties can contact me for copies of receipts and build pictures. I am asking $30K. It will be your responsibility to arrange shipping and pay any fees.

Thanks for looking-

I believe this is a good price for a great motor; but, still a bundle of money. The number of 914 owners willing to make that committment are in the minority. A lot of people believe they can build cheaper than they actually can. The reality is all of the parts and machine work add up quickly when done correctly.

Mark Epstein and you hit the nail on the head. Buy this motor and drop it into your car. Instead of the car being down a year, maybe more, it would be down less than a week and running with a fresh 3.2. Then sell your rebuildable motor for $10K-$15K to someone who just wants to build their own motor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
