What is the best bang-for-buck engine build?
I have a 1971 911T Targa 2.2 with Zenith carbs. A recent engine fire + almost 100,000 miles has me facing a potential engine rebuild in the near future. My 2.2 is numbers matching and will stay with the car whether rebuilt or not. All things being equal what is the best bang-for-buck engine rebuild in the $15k-$20k budget range?
If you were in this position would you rebuild using the stock 2.2 case or go for a different case, crank, etc.? I'd love to hear from those who have actually built these motors and those who have only dreamt about it. What combo would you build for this car? Car is 100% street use for pleasure and road trips.
Tell me all about your best bang-for-buck builds!
