Sounds good to me, Dan. We may need the big guns.

I will be out of town for the drop, but I'll be there for the re-install party

Jim, are you planning to install Carrera tensioners too? I'll be in FL buying my 993 next weekend, but may be able to swing by later Sunday to show it off. Otherwise, probably sometime the next weekend, though that's also the famous Tischer tech session.

If you have any pictures, I am sure we would all love to see them!

No, the PO put new hydraulic (non-pressure-fed) tensioners in last fall.

Here is all I've seen of the car I'm buying:

It's pretty much identical to Jim's except for the basket handle 3rd brake light - and it will see redline every single day!

Did he put the collars on them as well ?? Cheap insurance if he didn't.

Marc, good question...I think I remember that the collars were put on; however, I'm not positive. I'll have to check my records.


OK guys, who's in for an engine drop this Saturday AM?

Jim,

I should be avail. Shoot me a PM as I'd like to get the jack, lift, etc. to you prior to the weekend just in case something comes up last minute and I can't make it on Sat.

Default PM didn't work, so I sent regular email
Hi Charlie,

The Dorkiphus e-mail (private or otherwise) isn't working for me. Don't know why. I sent you a regular email to your yahoo account. Let me know if you don't receive it.
