Anyone got an idea how long it typically takes to have a V8 engine rebuilt.

 

Somewhere between a couple of weeks and possibly years by 1 thread. Its something you need to discuss with your builder. A typical stock rebuild should be less than a month.

 

Hi,

My 455 was supposed to take 3 months, could have been done in about 9 and in reality should pick up in a year, dyno timing and logistics, part of the delay.

A few of those months delay were waiting for a roller cam blank, another month was waiting for roller rockers, so all depends upon parts going into your build.
ras mentioned you're builder should be able to give a rough estimate, but with all the Covid bs anything you order could have considerable lead time..

Good luck with the rebuild,

 

If you know exactly what you want to do-and get pistons, cam and all parts ordered and ready to go it shouldn’t take much more than 3-5 weeks total..as long as the crank or the block doesn’t have any unknown issues

 

Thanks to all that replied.
