Would you mind sharing the name and contact info of your welder?

Since I'm fairly local, I'd like to use him for this in the future...

Thanks!

I will check with him, he is a 7gt3 owner with a high tech machine shop but usually does not do this type of motorsports work anymore. He fabricated race cars for many years and he still likes doing it but more as a hobby now. Mike

That's what IPB Autosport is doing with all the 996 TTs that have been coming in with busted fittings. If you're already pulling the engine for other work - it's the ideal time.

Excellent, thank you. I will do this whenever my engine is out, so could be a while, or not if one of these fittings pops tomorrow!
