Where is a good machine shop in this area?

Howard, a good machine shop that's right near us is Rockville Ring and Bearing (301) 762-5542. They are right down the street from the Rockville court house, and directly across the street from the Rockville Metro station (within walking distance).
Depending on when you're planning to drop the motor, I might be able to lend you the services of my garage since it's up the street from you. FYI, I have a real good friend that lives in your 'hood , so be on the lookout for the brown beast on Muddy Branch rd. Give me a call, don't be a stranger

.
Just out of curiosity and I know Jim already asked, but how do you know that your flywheel needs to be replaced ? Was this something that the PO told you?

I agree with Jim

, you just got that beautiful Carrera and the last thing you need to be doing to it is putting it under the knife. In the words of Dan M., drive it like you stole it!!!!!
At least for the first year of new p-car ownership I would set aside any major repairs/replacements unless they are
really needed. IMO spend the first year getting familiar with the 911 and how to drive it, then tear into it after you've got the seat time.
