I'm thinking of getting my engine rebuilt and i was wonder if anyone would know roughly how much it would cost.

too much. if you have a bunch of miles on it you prob want to get it machined and have the crank balanced and maybe port and polish the head. the rebuild kit with larger pistons for the bore machining will be less than the actual machining im guessing. youll save a ton of money if you can rebuild it yourself minus the machining. if i was you i wouldnt fix what isnt broken. maybe just do an in depth tune up or add some small upgrades. if you buy a bunch of stuff for your engine instead of reuilding it you will prob be way under the cost of a rebuild and in no way will you be putting more stresson you rotating assembly or block.

if i was going to keep my stock 2.0 instead of putting in a bigger engine, i would: port and polish head, solid lifter conversion, weber carb, header, external breather, electric fan, bigger alt, and maybe some more shit i cant think of right now.

anyway, im not for sure of the numbers but like i said, dont try to fix what isnt broken. my original 2.0 engine has 145000 and is all stock. when i bought it with 130000 i did a thorough tune up and it has stood up to me abusing it for 15000 miles. its not my daily so i treat it like a red headed step child everytime i drive it.
