I thought you had something majorly wrong with the engine?

I do, leaky passenger turbo, so I fed it half a liter of risoline...

See how it is at the end of the day.

Oh, that's not that bad as an internal issue. Glad to hear.

No, however, last time I had it put to scrub the new tires, it went through half a liter in 225kms, so not great.

Hopefully the risoline will help, short term.

There were most certainly some neat ones; a Vasek Polack rsr (supposedly), but it had a 993 3.6 in it, no word on what happened to the original motor.

A fellow with a pristine 356 that he had since new, picked up in Germany, drove all over Europe, brought it to Canada, drove it all over North America... Looked new.

What I have decided on it to put rods and pistons in, then the 980s... Going to stay at 3.6, and I understand that the Pauter rods are direct drop in with no clearancing required.

Interestingly, so far, there hasn't been any oil leakage, but it's only been driven 40kns today.

Being that it is a large frame turbo...you could probably run it stock unless you really plan to lean on it?



Do you plan on keeping those k24s?

I didn't get to do anything car related this weekend so im living vicariously through y'all. Have a bit of a cold and had to do chores.

Forget about the motor! Do you know how Vasek Polak met his demise?

He bought it at speed on the Autobahn in a Porsche 993 Turbo, and died as a result. He had opened the very first Porsche dealership stateside in the late 1950's in Hermosa beach CA. I've been there. Was a terrific dealership given his and it's rep but I did all my buying in LA proper. He was a Czech and not a Polack!

That was a lot of pics of a lot of cars you posted. Looked like a fun meet!
