the hardest driven 991GT3 in USA is here in norcal (orthojoe's). i think it's got 5000 track mile? maybe more. NO problem. drive it let it blow up and fix it. mere worrying and talking about it will not make your engine last any longer.

Valve train issues seem to be related to low oil levels. Oil level read outs, recycle old information until engine lid is raised. I now open engine lid every time I drive the car to make sure no old info is handed down. G.Led
