That would not be my question, I would be concerned about what Pelican would actually send. When I buy from Porsche, I know what I am getting.

Yes, buy from Porsche. The part works better if you pay $50 for that $0.01 label.
Everyone knows that Porsche makes the best bearings...and labels.

It’s often worth calling Porsche parts department to see about a price. Sometimes the prices are ridiculous but other times very reasonable when you consider added duties and taxes (TRK is in Canada). Calling is free, even at Porsche!

Unlike Pelican, Porsche actually sends what I asked for.

i got a spec clutch kit from pelican. it was supposed to be for 996 AND 986. it came with a 996 pilot bearing only. after the pain i went through with pelican trying to convince them that the clutch alignment tool is different for the 5- and 6- speed transmissions, i don't have the patience to get back into it with them on this (especially if the best i could expect is for them to ship me the $8 part when, in the case of something deep in the engine that you don't want to frequently revisit, you want oem or equivalent). i think jfp is right on the money - "unlike pelican, porsche actually sends what i ask for".
