Hello all,
I have an 85 911 with 265,000 miles on the engine. The thing still runs strong but it burns some oil and smokes on startup. It has started to smoke even after warm-up lately. I would like to start my engine rebuild fund and want to get an idea of what I should be expecting for a budget. I'd like to budget for a rebuild with simple performance upgrades so maybe cam regrind, euro spec pistons and exhaust?

I have some engine rebuilding experience but this is my first 911. I'd like to rebuild this engine myself to save money and for the experience.

I'd appreciate experts estimate on an expected budget and advice on performance upgrades. Also, I live in California so I need to keep in mind smog inspections.

Thank you,
Jason
