how much would it cost to fully build an s2k motor

GRAF-FITI

1 billion dollars

:dr. evil laugh:

iam7head

define fully built perhaps?

GRAF-FITI

from scratch silly

first thing you need is aluminum and a mold of the bare block

vipcivic

for turbo applications sleeved and able to make around 600-700hp

jvon

Spoon ITR

a good turbo kit is a couple grand let alone a built motor.

Building a motor isnt as cheap as it sounds. Doesnt Inline Pro sell built motors?

$3550 although you should always expect more

Do you even own an s2k? If you have any knowledge then you would know that the s2k isn't the cheapest car to build.

forged pistons are forged pistions. Doesnt matter if your buying them for a H motor or an F motor they will be around the same price. Its the parts that they need to make specifically for the car that are gonna put a hole in your wallet

That sounds like a good price + whatever the labour is going to cost you to take it out and re-install it. If you are going to get into a build like this make sure you have plenty of money lying around in case anything goes wrong

for shop i would say about 5-6 grand after all the labor and crap, i don't even know they can slap a warranty on it.

My built bottom end 2.4 liter was 3500 with sleeves and 2.2 crank.

My head was about 2000.

Headgasket and all new seals were about 250.

This is about the going rate for a built motor from a shop.

As for the block, you figure about 1100-1600 for sleeves, 900-1400 for pistons and rods, 200 for bearings and 300-600 for assembly.

You can figure the head disassembly, port job, and reassembly will run run about 1200 give or take. If you wanna add aftermarket valve train you will have to add on the parts prices on top of that. Also there will be more labor if you go with over sized valves.

lets just say..."more than you can afford, pal!"
