Default Anyone in NJ changing their TB?

If anyone in the NJ area is planning on changing their timing belt, water pump, resealing thie engine and needs a hand let me know. I just picked up a 951 and ordered my parts but would like to see the best approach to tackle this job.

I am actually looking forward to perfomring this job. I wouldlike to see first hand on the process and maybe you know some tips that you could share.

TIA

PS...I have been reading Clarks Garage and previous posts but sometimes hands on approach is best.

I think VINMAN from the Pelican forum lives in Howell also. He knows how to do them, may want to enlist his help. If you can wait until August or so, i will be doing my belts + oil seals again when i get back.

Im far from the time I need to do a timing belt, ive done a few though, if you guys want to get something together, get a few guys together, and do some timingbelts that would be cool.

I have a friend that was a porsche technichan at Schnieder and Nelson on route 35 for 9 years.. He has the special belt tool and everything.. I am located in eatontown.. right around the corner. Dependent on if he has free time.. im sure he would be down to help us out. I usually just pay him to do mine so I know it is done right. If you wanted him to do yours for you.. hes real cool about you hanging out and watching or whatever.
