how many hours would a engine rebuild take

[eurowerkz]

ok i want to get my m44 rebuilt with the kit that comes form brav auto. whats included in the kit is MaxSil BMW Pistons with Tefcote, Sealed Power rings, OEM rod bearings, main bearings, complete gasket kit, timing chain, timing chain rails, and head bolts. about how many hours would you estimate it took to do this?

normally two to four working days depending on shop...
doing it yourself, and knowing what your doing a weekend working at a relaxed rate.

Assembling the engine is a small task, its all the machine work that takes time.

A good machine shop will return the block in a couple days same for a head (Valve job)

Depending on your wallet and taste this can go way up....

My engine builder had my motor for a week, (Jeep engine)
that included the block work and a very good valve job, B&B the rotating assembly treardown and re-assemble, parts aquisition.

The parts you describe require a top and bottom end rebuild.

If you plan on doing this yourself, what is your level of expertise?
If you plan on having a shop do it, why don't you ask them?

The rule of thumb is that with any rebuild work, it's going to take longer than you expect.
