Checkout the video in General discussions, "Has Porsche let us down thread", post #19.

I did mix up the different lifters. Thank you for the clarification that makes me feel better about the repair cost.

That video was interesting! Some of the damage in the head was similar to mine such as the snapped drives on the oil pumps. The damage was contained only in the heads for me and no other failures elsewhere in the engine like the IMS shaft in the video.
