Not sure how I didn't see the engine portion of these upgrades. Everything looks great. 3.8?
May I ask what size intake valves 50 - 51.5 mm? are they Ti? also what is custom about the carrillo rods? I see you are still using the harmonic balancing pulley. Any thought given to using the 993 crank to eliminate it? I know the parts are prohibitively expensive. What max RPM do you plan to achieve? I see you are using the stronger valve springs and Ti retainers.
This thing should sing a glorious song when done.

kept her a 3.6;
51 mm intake
No max rpm target but sense is she will happily spin to 7800
jay lee worked his magic on the Carrillo’s so makes em custom in my eye
dyno will paint a clear (and loud) picture

Better than.dreamed
Dyno 3.6 motec/itb/custom rods with port & polished cylinder heads & upgraded injectors
Couldn't be happier with the build: car has amazing grunt and a snappy, snarling engine- the chassis is sublime with the Ohlins and it stops like it has been halted by the hand of god.

The car exceeded all projections on the dyno- the whole was greater than the sum of the parts at 350+ hp
Peter said it was one of the strongest 3.6's he had ever worked on- which is clearly the result of employing a team that has worked and solved the same problem countless times before. ( from xtreme- to Jae @ mirage, Dema Elgin & on down the line. )
