EXACTLY what I was thinking!

Maybe Excellence magazine would allow putting the article on 993 buying tips with things to looks for on this site? (November 06, IIRC)

I meant to just go and check it out but instead I got sucked in and could not blink, let alone look away, until I just finished reading through the entire illustrated engine rebuild. Great job, Mike!

Great effort! Just took a quick look around the engine rebuild.........and two "oops" that I'll admit to also doing over the years.......forgetting the air deflectors. And why the car didn't start, yeah I guessed it. One of those times you want to KICK yourself. Grrr. (I'll not disclose in the interest of letting those who haven't read through try to figure it out.)
