Engine Rebuild

Well I did a search and couldnt find anything on it, so I was wondering. How much should I expect to pay on average for an engine rebuild on my 93 pathy? I know prices vary I am just trying to get a ballpark figure so I know how much I should save up. I just want a normal rebuild right now, nothing fancy. Any info you guys can provide would be great. Thanks,

You have asked a difficult question. My son has just completed a rebuild. In a rebuild you change rods, bearings, bore the block, new pistons, rings, redo the heads, new oil pump, and replace all the exhaust studs. This job would cost you around $2500.

 

You can obviously only have part of this done if you want and save money. Also you can replace the engine with a new japanese take out for around $1500, sometimes less. Then finally there is used engines for under $1000.

 

So take you pick. Why do you want to have your engine rebuilt? what is wrong?

If you have the capability, pull it yourself, and bring it in. I blew my motor @ 176k, bought a 30k jobber from a japanese motor import place for $750 and did all the work myself. Might want to consider that route, unless you are plaiin on upgradingin internal components.
