Thanks
Like you mention, the design for disconnecting the engine and tranny is great. Easy, but fiddly due to some 'first time fuel line connections' and some tight spots around the engine bay.
I have a luxury of two post lift and lift table that made the work much much easier that on the garage floor and jackstands etc.

Clutch slipping at the track during last race of the season gave a great reason for this maintenance - this car is a fun hobby for my son and me to work on together - he's very interested to work on the car and to learn same time.
Same time we'll replace at least: flywheel, clutch, pilot & throw out bearing, RMS, IMSB, all vacuum lines, chain ramps (5-chain engine), all 3 tensioners, refurbish driveshafts with new lubrication and boots, accessory belt, engine mount, etc.

AOS we changed approx 1.5 years ago, like the coolant tank - both original Porsche parts, tranny mounts we did change spring 2022, so all those can stay there as they are now.
