Approx value of a 1967 engine?
T engine, rebuilt ca. 15K miles ago, with E pistons & cams.
Any ballparks appreciated. Thanks!

There were no Ts in 1967. What's the serial and type number of the engine? The primary deciding factor here will be: is the case magnesium or aluminum. The other is can you document the rebuild?

2 bucks, and I'll pick it up tomorrow, tonight even! Wishful thinking.
Anyway, what is the build # on the engine, down next to the type # 901/06, should be about 7500 or less. Dave

At least $2500, $4K on the high end as a longblock.

4K for a running rebuilt aluminum early 2.0 block? Especially with later E pistons and cams you are looking at MUCH more than that even under recessionary pricing. I don't mean to come off as argumentative but the 2.0 is a desirable block in aluminum and 4K is putting you in close to running 2.7 (not the best one) range. Nonetheless I could be wrong but I don't think 4K is correct.

Engine # is 901/06 7377. If EarlyPorsche is even in the right ballpark, I won't tell you guys what I paid for this engine, plus a pair of freshly rebuilt Webers....

I mean I couldn't begin to tell you what its worth exactly, at least not over the internet. I just don't think a rebuilt aluminum 2.0 is $4,000 on the high end. Bare blocks with cranks sell for $1,000-$1,200 and we know that doesn't give you much.

It's no big deal - I don't need a solid value. I originally made the deal with the seller when he was under the impression it was a 1970 2.2 with the E goodies. Then when he got it into his shop and had a better look at it (he first saw it in a storage room with a flashlight) he realized it was a 67 and said it was significantly more valuable. He still kept the deal at the same price, but said when I'm ready to sell it he wants it back, which is fine with me. I needed something for a couple years to replace my engine while I rebuild it, which will be a very slow, ongoing process.

You will love the 2.0. I have a similarly hopped up 2.0 but mine is bored out without cams so I have the torquey Solex cams. Not sure how the E cams perform in the 2.0 but I bet it works! If you don't enjoy the 2.0 I will be real surprised you might not even want to rebuild the other one but I bet you will! ENJOY!

Everybody keeps saying I'm going to love it! I can't wait to find out for myself! My only concern is that it'll feel weak compared to the 2.4, but from what I've heard and read, it won't, especially considering my 2.4 is tired.
A couple pics:

Looks like icebox sweepings of used parts. Early centerlube chain covers capped off, later "T" cast iron cylinders. If the pistons are E, they didn't come in those cylinders and I'm sure they are used too. I'd value it as an aluminum case, a crank, and webers.
