Default 964 Carrera project

Hi

New in 964 world, have had some other Porsche like 911 sc, 930 and 928

Have bought a 964 Carrera 4 project car that missing some parts and engine was started disabled (do not know history, car have been stand still long time).

I have disabled engine and look like there are some burn marks between cylinder and head, car is a 89 year and have read that this engine has been change at later years.

What upgrade have people done with similar engine? see pictures, Thanks for answer.

From what I have read Steve Weiner-RennsportSystems is the goto guy on adapting the old style heads to use the new style head gaskets He posts on this forum often. He probably will chime in soon

New piston and cylinder kit and machine your heads (Steve W is indeed one of the best) and you'll have a strong dry like-new motor when reassembled.

Yes. Early cars didn’t have the seals the later cars and would leak there. Need to be machined and adapted.
