Wrecked 2004 Boxster S FS
Since I can't find a cheap 2003-04 roller for my engine, I'm selling the whole thing.

I don't think the '04 engine will go into an '05 without a bunch of extra work.

I'm pretty sure 04 and 05 should be a direct replacement. Both 3 chain, 7.8DME with dual vario-cam actuators.
not sure what work you are thinking of -- now a 2000-2002 aren't exact replacements, as they
are 5 chain, 7.2DME, single VarioCam actuators.

The 2005's are 987's, so I assume the engine bay may a little different or the ECU, that sort of thing.

Is the ticking sound you now hear from the right side vent coming from the engine?

I don't know if its coming from the engine itself or something attached to the engine.

Lets see: factory Litronics, clear tails, carrera light wheels, PSE, black interior with the expensive aluminum surround shifter and glovebox dash, PSM, fairly low mileage chassis, bodywork damage only at front, 4 bow glass window factory top, and as a cherry on top --functional Raby-worked 3-chain engine with optimal IMS rebuild and good ecu for transplanting. If whoever bought it decides to part it out, they will likely net $6k+ for their efforts, even if pricing for quick sell. That totaled car had a lot of desireable parts...
