build or rebuild your long block type 1 from the rod bearings out
Part number:
lb rods out
Your cost:
$600.00
Description:
To have your type 1 VW long block rebuilt from the rod bearings out by us, you must supply the following:
$600 for labor only, with parts, machine work*, and any related shipping being extra. $200 MORE for labor only, if your block has 10mm head studs and 94mm cylinders (for clearancing)
I will tear it down to the rod bearings, replace the rod bearings, inspect & possibly reuse the rods. If the rods need rebuilt, they'll likely be replaced. This of course depends on the rods.
I'll install a new piston & cylinder kit with Total Seal Gapless 2nd rings.
I'll inspect & possibly reuse your heads (they will be steam cleaned only). If they leak or are cracked you'll get new heads. This of course depends on the heads.
I'll install new pushrod tubes & seals. I'll clean & blow out the pushrods.
I'll inspect & reinstall your valve train at the correct lash & install the valve covers.
Of course any gaskets encountered in the process will be replaced with new.
*Machine Work meaning:
- A clean long block. Pressure wash at a car wash or steam clean the engine before bringing it to be rebuilt. If you're going to ship it, NEVER use styrofoam packing - only paper or cardboard AND ALWAYS use boxes designed for the weight. Double boxing or crating for long blocks and double boxing for short blocks.
- A $300 deposit.
- Bring the long block, which consists of:
- The drain plate on the bottom
- The flywheel, clutch & p-plate on the back
- The pulley on the front
- No shrouding or tin or exhaust
- The oil cooler or adapter can be there, as well as the distributor, fuel pump & alt stand on top
- Drain the oil. Bring with no oil in it
