Whatever you do, you need to secure the flywheel against rotation (both when you break them loose and when you put them back on). When I did the Audi, I did NOT get their tool, I rigged something up to keep it from rotating.

If you can't rig it, then get the tool.

Noted, and ordered it this morning from Pelican they seem to have the best price, with he RMS and coolant temp sensor.
I will rig a RMS pressing tool for the RMS, don't have $800 for Porsche tool.
Update after one week waiting for parts will start on the cams Cleaned and removed the machine smooth finish BBI fittings New starter too new disc has no springs RMS looks good perhaps an aftermarket seal? JB weld
Nice & shiny! You did a much better job cleaning up those housings for the coolant pipes than I did.
I am curious about springs vs. no springs. That normally means SMFW vs. DMFW. Did the flywheel change? They both "look" like Dual Mass flywheels, but I can't quite make out the part number on the old one. Only reason I ask is that normally, for a DMFW, you do not have springs on the friction disk. I wonder what the clutch felt like engaging?

The new one is also a DMFW, the new clutch disc has no springs.
Seems like the stock setup is springs on both.
Hopefully got everything listed here. Not the only one on RL with OCD.
That lift table is awesome. I see you did the Atcbi5 modification to it.😂😂
with the money I saved, went out and paid cash for my panerai watch.
Yes, thanks for all support across all these threads one heck of a job.So many o-rings, hoses and torque values to track down.
having the second cart made it easy do replace the clutch.
Update been quiet and dealing with the cam issue and some parts I missed..
Got new cam rings ordered and front chain guides.
Machinist who fixed the cam recommended screws over the sleeve pins.Get a carbide tap for this I went trough 6 HS steel taps and broke one. Spun Cam bank 1 other side good Friend John Q fixed it for me Pinned and staked pins Super hard to tap trough the cam. 3D clutch alignment tool by new best friend Jim Wong. factory tool too small for PP. center gold tool the winner cracked blade on bank 1
Took a few tries to get the oil pressure up before installing the fuel pump fuses.
New starter sounds like a 3rd turbo.
took a few weeks longer than planed but happy at 5 weeks part time.
