i recently purchased an 84 celica gts with the 22re from a guy i know,he started a rebuild but never got around to finishing it,intake manifold and exhaust manifold are removed,all wires and hoses also removed,only set back is he didnt label a damn thing. i want to finish the rebuild but dont have the time,working 7 days a week with little down time. im wondering if anyone can give me an idea as to how much i would be spending for a reputable shop to be rebuilding it for me.

Most shops won't touch a pre-torn down engine project due to parts missing and unknown suprises.

hmm. ill ask the few shops here if they will,and if not,then itll be quite awhile before it hits the road again. thanks for the input.

its just a pain because since nothing is labeled,i have no idea where to start.

Get yourself a factory shop manual. There's lots on Ebay. The other option is to find a used or ready built 22RE and throw it in.
