bsmith100 Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I have a Honda B16 engine that I need to get rebuilt. Any suggestions for an engine builder? I would prefer a place that is local, and I live in the Chicago area. How much is the going rate for a rebuild? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsmith100 Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 Thanks. I was looking at the King Motorsports site, and the prices they have listed for rebuilds are 1750 for a short block and 3500 for a long block. That is for labor only, parts not included. Is that about average for a rebuild? It seems really expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sscguy Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I would think you could get a brand new longblock for close to that, so yeah, I'd say it sounds expensive. Profunction does nice work here, but I'm not sure if they offer rebuilding services. I know of at least two HC guys that deal with them: http://www.profunctionauto.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithg Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 If you don't need anything other than a stock engine, It's hard to go wrong with a motor built by Honda. Why don't you just buy annother good used one? I use www.hmotorsonline.com. King Motorsports (near you) is top tier if you need anything other than a stocker.
