so i had a chance to go over and visit the shop where my car is sitting and my engine is finally going back together he just finished pressing in new bushings on the connecting rods and installing the arp engine studs.slowly but surely it is getting there.He says a couple of weeks and she'll be ready to go.

is he going to clean the engine any more than he has? Be a shame not to have it sparkly when he's done

OMG how did he get the engine so clean??? i've got mine apart and after two cans of cleaner and couple hours of soft brushing..still not near that!!

he is cleaning piece by piece as he is installing it.he told me h wants 100% satisfaction from me when he hands over the keys. I don' know how he is cleaning the parts i know he has a comercial parts cleaner in his shop anything after that i don't know. All i can say is he is being meticulous about the rebuild which is good to see and know. All i can say is i am super stoked and excited. There's only so much reading i can do on the car i wanna hear the beast turn over and just sit in it and listen then go for a very long drive.....

it's beeing worked on by a fellow named ed who owns elegant motors. he's got a website if you want to visit it and see what you think.it"s my first porsche so the whole experience is new to me and a big learning curve so my opinions and information are limited to what i am learning here and the web.....

check out the spray cans on the workbench. Is that brake cleaner? Could be what he is using.
