He said the procedure went very well. And now for the drum roll. He said the bear looked fine (double row) and turned smooth. He agreed it was better to find it in good shape than in some other condition. While in there he replace the RMS and since the clutch was 2/3 spent I had him replace it also.

I'm overall glad I had it done. So, I'm good to go. I now plan to drive this thing as a good weather daily driver and enjoy.
Pretty much the exact same news I heard back from Porsche on mine. Bearing looked perfectly fine, had them redo the seals, clutch stayed in as it was > 50% good (I'll have it replaced in a couple of years, having the AOS and water pump done next year around this time), replaced a couple of spark plug o-rings, the oil filler tube, did an oil change and basically went over the car with a fine tooth comb looking for anything that needed work. The car passed with flying colors so I'm very pleased I pulled the trigger on this Box!
