Sorry, Engelbert. It's the only thing not perfect in this whole thread. Your work is amazing.

I started on the GT3 Muffler install.

First I removed the rear bumper to get better access.





Next I removing the engine support and converting the 3.6 engine from triple crank pulley to single pulley, to make more space for the GT3 muffler.



The 993 heat exchanger will be replaced with new header with heat.



I had the make a new special tool to hold the pulley to torque the bolt. When the engine was out of the car and no transmission, I could lock the crank shaft at the flywheel. But now I need something to hold the pulley while torquing the bolt.





This is an early engine console. I will need different studs. Some are to short and some are to long.



More to come

Cheers
Engelbert

I installed the new crank pulley and the engine console, and test fitted the GT3 muffler. The lower section of the rear bumper need to be modified.



I cut out the center section. Too bad that I cannot use the section with the cooling slots. I really liked the look.



I made a new fiberglass piece.



Here already added to the bumper.



I had to modify the rear engine tin section as well, so the muffler could move up about 30mm.



Here final test fit with the lower bumper section in rough finish.







Cheers
Engelbert
