Title: Cost of a engine rebuild
Post by Dave Bennett on 10/31/05 at 05:50:22

Hi Folks,

I have a friend that has a savage. He has done the rubberplug leak fix once and the engine is again leaking oil. He is considering taking it to a repair shop and having them look at it. If it comes down to needing a rebuild, does anyone know what a reasonable cost for that would be?

Thanks for lending an ear.

My was done 3 years back by a dependable dealers shop, the charge was about $850 in labor + misc parts.

Now that sounds reasonable

Now days where folks are charged $300+ to re-torque the head bolts, change the oil, and incorrectly re-install the headcap plug i'd be suprised if you get out for under $1500.

I paid a little over a $1000 for an overhaul including parts, but thats here in Japan.

it cost me like 1500 for just rebuilding the top of the engine, no piston :( but it was a suzuki stealership.
