The part sourcing seems to be going well. Found a 968 bottom end with proper headstuds 2500. He says the 951 headstuds are the same size as the 89' 2.7. Anyone know for sure? Oh yeah, OEM mahle pistons and rods for 1200. Lookin like low 4k for extra parts.

No, no and No! 951 headstuds are too long to go with 3.0l block and 8valve head.
Threads in 2.5 and 3.0 blocks are in diffrent depth
If you really want to try I can sell for you nice ARP studs for 951.

Are these 104 mm turbo pistons? What rods are they? Chris White probably has a box load of 951 rods that he'll sell you or $100.
