That just seems to be an incredible buy at that price to me, especially with a feman. engine.

I'll regret selling it I'm sure. Just like I miss my little 75' 911S - warts and all.

Is this another reman engine or the reman engine that was giving you issues and was sent to Jake for diagnosis?

Same one - ! It had a partial blockage in one of the coolant lines which was restricting the coolant flow at idle causing the temp to slowly creep up during extended idle periods. The local Porsche Dealer - Arlington Porsche - did NOT want to troubleshoot it for me. All they wanted to do was take my car in trade and sell me another car. I had it sent to Jakes directly from the Porsche dealer. Jake insisted that it had more extreme issues and I had it sent back. The car was troubleshot and repaired locally by Ray at Auto Sport Group (ASG).

Here's a good comparison (no C'4', no Litronics, no rear window wiper...):
