Rebuilt by a reputable shop where you don't have to worry if they cut corners? I'm going to guess $6K-$7K without limited slip. But let's see what others say.
Vertex sells rebuilt 915's for $6100, but you get back $2500 after you send them your core. No personal experience, but I think this would be a rebuild I'd be less confident about.
Most of these cars are driven so few miles that a place can take a chance with a partial rebuild and nobody is likely to notice for years.
