Value of 2.7 engine?
Hi guys,
I need to sell this 2.7. I think this photo shows all the parts but not exactly sure right now. I bought this engine from a factory Porsche mechanic who threw out any part that wasn’t in Spec. Everything disassembled, clean, and ready to be put back together. Thanks for your help! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512612746.png |

$4-5k.

It's a 77 core longblock in pieces. No fan, shroud, tin, cooler or injection. It's just the block. Some mechanic once said it was good stuff. I buy this engine I am measuring and inspecting every part over again and no doubt sending some of it out for machine work. I'm probably going to spend $5k just getting the block, heads, and rotating assembly done.

And it wasn’t just some random mechanic, this guy was factory trained expert in these engines. He has an impeccable reputation across fifty years of Porsches. |

It is a random mechanic. He didn't sign his name to it. He didn't write down his measurements on each thing to be used. Whatever work he did making sure it was right is lost to the ages. It doesn't matter. It's just a core that's probably mostly in spec. My $5k number was machine work. Buy this core for $5k and do $5k of machine work and you're a good way there. With all the missing stuff, it's likely $15-20k to build this engine. |

Frankly, I'd be hard pressed to pay $4K. But I'm sure others would. Everybody's different.

Hard sell... Suspect anyone buying it will make an extremely conservative offer... Good luck... |

Unless there’s an implicit guarantee here by the seller these are known good parts. |
I’ll offer $1200-1500 in all seriousness assuming there is a crankshaft included
|
A 7r case is worth $1500. That offer is a joke.
|
I think 4-5K, like Matt says, makes a fair deal for both parties.
