Subject: price on a engine re built Mon Apr 19 2010, 19:23
im lookin to re build my golf's engine before i get it back on the road as it has done a few miles now as i cant bring myself to sell it and i was also thinking of giving the engine a bit of a tune up while i was at it and replace any parts for better ones which are common faults to make it as built proof as i can so i can convince the parents to let me keep it
cheers ben

depends how much you want to replace, piston rings, main bearings, big end bearings, head skim, head gasket set and bottom end set is really the minimum, i can ge some prices from work if you want?
