Advice for my winter project

[WhipE350]

I'm back in business! Clutch is just fine, just feels different and works like a charm...easy enough to use now that maybe my sometime girl will be able to get into 1st gear.

I must have left the belt hanging one groove off the back side of the power steering pump, easy enough mistake to make, I've noticed before putting it back in that it like to not seat itself.

Pushed it hard (6000rpm+) and it pulls well. The oil tube where the main leak is seems fine but that joint over the engine end still seems to leak a little, no drip but it still isn't right. I think it just a bad design, I put a plastic tie wrap around it to hold it up a little, and maybe that will help.

I'll post details of what parts I got and tools and cost tonight. If I can get her cleaned up I might make it to Car's and Coffee tomorrow, my pumper got a lot of swirls from my pants hitting it putting it back in.

Cheers.

Congrats on a job well done. I'm impressed! I'm looking forward to seeing your parts list.

I'm not going to make it to C&C tomorrow. If you do, take some pics of any interesting whips.

BTW, does Stuck have a 991 on order? Delivery date?

Thanks man! C&C was busy, a lot of Porsches. I didn't take any pics, too busy socializing and making new friends. Yup the 991 'S' gets here in March, he is so excited. We're talking about taking a trip to Charleston and Savannah when it comes in. Suppose to have a 2000 mile break in period but you know gonna be hard to hold him back!

Here is the list of both parts and tools I purchased. I get reduced price on Porsche parts so it was a helpful in keeping cost down. I had wanted a lot of tools so purchased freely what I might need for the project. I know there are other rookies out there like me that are thinking about doing a similar project, this will give you an idea if it is worth it or not. You'll notice the big cost was the IMS bearing. The rest wasn't too bad. Notice too oil isn't listed, I had some already. I guess the oil could be captured and reused if you have low miles on it.
