Book is around 18 on a turbo, 20 if you have a 1 piece crossover pipe. NA is about 11. You only need about 5 either way.

Damn... I wish I'd consulted you when I did my clutch job cuz I would have loved to have had it done in 5!

Van

So, looks like we're going to tackle this job on Nov. 1.

If anyone in the Hudson Valley wants to help out / hang out, let me know! The more the merrier (we have to lift a transmission, you know...)

bah, i got work on saturdays. But I guess i would rather work than do a clutch job hah

Well, so far, the clutch throwout bearing has arrived from Paragon. Should receive the rest on Tuesday!

Van

Fantastic! I almost bought a "spare" aluminum flywheel today at Rick DeMan's... but didn't really think we'd need it.

DanR

how was the sele at demans?

VOoDOoGTX

what did you get the flywheel for? i asked where the sale was i wanted too go down! i have so much crap to buy no chance you picked up a headgasket kit?

Van

Rick didn't have a head gasket set... he did have some stock 944 head gaskets, though. I did pick up an oil pan gasket.

He also had 2 NA 8 valve heads. And a used aluminum 944 flywheel.

Give him a call. I doubt those things sold, so you could arrange a time to meet him there.

I got a bunch of parts for my 914 plus a partial 944 exhaust that I'll be able to use to repair mine.

The amount of stuff Rick had was amazing. Heaven if you were rebuilding an air-cooled 911!

HAHAHA What time where you there? I got SO much STUFF it wasn't even funny. and at VERY good PRICE. I have to make 2 trips home hehe. Super helpful and super easy to work with

reno808

I have a headgasket and a bunch of new pieces that come with the headgasket kit. Let me know we can meet up or something

Van

I got there at 10:30. I wanted to get the good deals!

He really had a lot of stuff! It would have been easy to drop a grand or two...

reno808

lol i was there at that time lol i did do that

Van

I didn't get the flywheel. The price was $50 - a pretty good price, although it was used (perhaps a few times... two of the threaded holes had stripped and were fixed with a time-sert - not a bad thing, but it had never been rebalanced.)

He has a bunch of 930 wastegates and a variety of turbos in a variety of conditions.

Voodoo, did you do the Cliffs of Insanity run? I crossed the Bear Mt. this morning and it was beautiful!

VOoDOoGTX

no i never ended up going. It rained the night before and we were going too run our twin Turbo GTO. Leaves + wet roads means no traction and in the cold. that car dosent get traction so we just decided too skip it. It was suppose too be great though!
