Does this seem too good to be true? 200$ for both lower valve covers w/gaskets http://www.vertexauto.com/ShowItem/2...ver%20Set.aspx Anyone ordered from them before?

Seems the Al is simply a better way to go since I won't have to deal with Mg corrosion.

On the topic of steering rack bushings; go oem or poly? I found some threads on here where people got poly, but no one ever really posted if it makes a difference. Threads are too old to bump again.

What do you need to know? The PET can be downloaded from Porsche which will show you the different lines and general routing.

Hey all,
I am trying to figure out the oil path in our cars. I want to know because when I removed my lower chain tensioner, there was a lot of crud down there. I wonder what is the lowest point of the oiling system? On the same idea, I drained 8 liters of oil when doing an oil change, even after letting the cooler get to 81 celcius. How many liters does the tank actually hold and why is it bad if its overfilled?
Thanks!

My copy also skips sections. Goes from 17 Engine Lubrication then the next is 20 Fuel Supply. I always assumed that they kept the missing sections in reserve when they first published is case they had to later add new pages.

Not exactly sure of your question although the lowest point in the system should be the oil pump pick up. Too much oil will flood the system and you will end up with too much oil flowing back into the cylinders and creating a mess. The PO of my C4 did this and there was oil oozing out of everywhere it could. Off Topic John I see you picked up a cayman R nice ride.

All the best with it. A good friend of mine picked up a cayman R full track prepped a few weeks back it will be a beast of a car to compete with and I will pedaling very hard to keep up with him and expend 10 times the energy. IIRC he is pumping 370HP with full motons.
