Blown VR6 motor, need help. (VW peeps chime in!)
Well, I know there are a lot of people on here with knowledge on VW's...I have about none..so where would a good place to replace a motor? I'm looking for a reputable place that's fair in price as well.
The vehicle: 2001 VW Jetta VR6
Any input is appreciated!

Ben

Do you have the 12 valve? I have an engineer buddy at work that just built a new bottom end 3.0 liter!
If you have the 12 valve, I can see what he wants for it. He just sold his for a new car & still has the short block.
All professionally machined. New pistons...the works.
