Yeah, I’m with Maytag on this one. That would be an odd sound for a water pump or other peripheral to make. Not to say it can’t be, but that sounds like a rod knock or possibly a valve, but valves...

With the detent, you could drive for quite awhile I’m sure. Mine has 60k and while mine doesn’t grind, it did pop out occasionally when first started cold. And yeah, the synchros can be starting to...

Short of the NOS crap and all the other stuff, this type of "mod" was fairly popular in the 80's and it is quite possible it was done "right". Having said that, the rest of the thing is just a real...

See if it's your wind baffles in the roll bar. Notorious for the "can't find" rattles.

Use the Porsche fluid, pricy, but one and done. Leaves out any variables.

Motor mount, not necessarily trans mounts can be an issue and as mentioned, shifter and cables too. If your motor mount...

Trouble is, sides are flat and unfinished and designed to a accommodate uprights. Would be cool if they worked the sides into the lines!

But don’t forget... you get a “permanent” oiled air filter and a cool mounting plate too!:eek:

Interesting. I'm not sure I would want ANY airflow restriction on purpose. Given the crap that already gets in the rads, perhaps its a wash? I do try to clean mine a couple times a year. The more...

Usually gently pulling up on the crest, keeping some pressure on the “nuts” while loosening will get it done. If not, you’ll probably have to cut them off, or pry them off. Be careful though, the...

Soak it in a very hot water bath, then go to town with a scotchbrite pad. It’s a mess, but comes right off. Finish to your liking. Personally, I wouldn’t wrap it with that much scratching etc, good...

Yeah! What is it with anti-seize? That stuff just seems to grow patches everywhere and NEVER cleans off. Craziness.

Have a picture of the wood 917 knob? Would love to see how you installed it and how it looks. Very cool retro thing that only Porsche geeks would get!

Yeah, I actually talked the guys at my dealership, they are designed to be heated and stretched to make a tight fit. A tap with a heat gun works, but can go bad real quick. I did mine with nearly...

Nope, never thought about it. Too much hassle and not really worth the $$$ in the long haul. Perhaps things like the IMS tools and other high dollar specialty tools might be a thought, but still kind...

Just a note on removing the airbag if you do. The bolts are soft, be careful to not cross thread them when you reinstall the airbag. It’s easy to do.
