I like the idea of the 3.6 engine, PaulE, you're a much braver soul and have deeper pockets than I do. I'm kinda envious.  |
Thanks Brian, I am going to be married to this car for a while. I struggled for a while with what to do, but in the end since there was no damage to the major engine components (block, crank, rods, heads) I decided to go for the rebuild rather than a used engine. I could have sold the car as a roller but it is really the perfect car for me to do a few HPDE's in each year and learn a bit about driving on the track. The Nickies at $5k were a luxury but Porsche OEM rings are $1,200, although there are others that cost way less than that.
