Hopefully in the next week or so, my engine will be going back into my 996. She cracked a head... two years ago. It's taken this long to get the time and $$$ to get it back together. I pulled the engine and I'm doing the install.
Getting both heads checked, the one repaired, valve job, new springs, a mild porting job, and removing a couple of broken exhaust bolts on both was $2.5K from https://newsite.hamheads.com/porsche/. He did a great job.
Here's a list of other stuff (there's a ton of "while you are in there" items) and some of the costs:
Gasket set, $500
ARP head studs, $500
rebuild lifters $100
rebuild fuel injectors $120
Vario cam pads $60 (MUST DO!!)
Chain ramps $100
assorted old plastic tubing that breaks (oil filler, dipstick, AOS to TB, etc. ) $150
Air-oil separator
clutch/flywheel
The gasket kit included a new RMS. Yay!
IMS???
Cleaning materials, sealant, etc $100
water pump
coolant
oil change
power steering fluid
air filter
serpentine belt
spark plugs & plug tubes
exhaust clamps
