rebuild
ok so i have the chance to get a 911 block, just a bare block
i was wondering how hard is it to pick up new parts. and even building it up to a mild turbo engine??? also were a good site to look a engine part prices? now my budget is about 4-5g is this a possible goal? ill do all my own work and i have a guy here local that is a porsche rebuilder so i can have him look over my build so i know the build will go smoothly |

Parts are available, both new and used. Generally it's cheaper to buy a complete engine than try to buy all the parts separately. Buying all new parts for a 911 engine could cost several times more than buying a complete engine.

I found a 69 motor 2.0 for 3800
the engine was in the back of a "rust bucket" as the owner put it. The webers r off but its all there and he said it runs How much would a basic rebuild be? The rebuild should have new pistons and ring cylends to make it into a 2.4L? Ill have the heads ported and pollished? |

Thats not an engine you want to turbo and you need to turbo through
efi. Work in the 3.0 area and then you can modify standard items to work with a turbo |
