"For someone managing a fleet of vehicles or a one-person shop servicing whoever comes through the door, or the passionate weekend warrior looking at unexpected repairs, the cost of the whole engine is not one to take lightly. Buying a new or rebuilt engine can be one of the most expensive parts of car ownership, with replacement engines costing owners from a little over £1,000 for a small four-cylinder to £10,000 or more for high-end vehicles or high-performance builds."
"A complete engine usually defines a long block or complete assembly with things like the head, cam, valves, block, pistons and crank, among others. Usually, other accessory components are not included, like alternators or starter motors. This is often everything you need to start the car. These engines generally fall into three categories."
Complete engines refer to long blocks or complete assemblies that include components like the head, cam, valves, block, pistons, and crank. New engines offer the longest life and strongest warranties but cost the most. Remanufactured engines are rebuilt to factory specifications using new parts and often represent the best balance between cost and assurance. Used engines are the cheapest option but carry the highest risk due to unknown condition and mileage. Price drivers include engine size and configuration, brand and quality, engine condition, shipping and location, installation labor and services, and market-driven shortages or demand.
