I didn't mean to come across as pushy... I'll apologize in advance for my intensity :-)

I'll call you first thing Monday morning, or maybe tomorrow evening if I complete my weekend project early enough.

I look forward to assisting you.

No apology needed. I've dealt with this particular Porsche dealer before and have been slammed with bills and am not impressed with their service. The noise sounds serious to me and you pinged my technical conscience to urgency. You seem to have quite a following on the forum so I'll give you a try. Hey, I'm out of options at this point.
the sooner the better, tomorrow works for me if
thanks for the concern.

I know the Dealer you are referring to...

Jhandy's car is here now, he shipped it here from Texas, so people do believe in us and what we have done with these engines..

We'll treat you right, we do things the old fashioned way :-)

The Boxster arrived at my facility a few minutes ago.. I just finished a piston installation procedure, so I am headed downstairs now to get it onto the lift and diagnose the sound.. I fired it up very briefly and heard the noise straight away. Now comes the fun part.

Good to hear.....or maybe not. Hopefully damage will be at minimum.
By the way, the Griffin driver was a pleasure to deal with, as you stated.
I'll keep my fingers crossed. thanks.
