It hurts, trust me… I have had the car on stands for 6 months now; nothing has been easy. I assume there is some recession; yes, the head, in any case, went to the shop for checking and was sent bac ...

Completed the 944 radiator swap over the last couple of days . The original rad was completely shot . Got the car running on a single carb setup as a temporary setup to alow me to move it about under ...

For now I’ve left the adjuster screws at the machine shop. They told me machining them shouldn’t be a problem. For the first batch I’m having between 0.15 mm and 0.40 mm removed, depending on th ...

I was hoping to be able to leave the head in place but it looks like I'm running out of options, I'd need to take out almost 0.5 mm from some of the screws which I suppose is far from optimal.

I’ve confirmed true TDC ma ...

Hi Karl, do you still have units for sale? Postage includes delivery to Spain? Cheers!

Great!!!! Is there any way to help keep this site alive?

Thank you all. Noted on the followers; I'll remember to post the outcome in case anyone might find it helpful.

Thanks, the truth is I never did the valve clearance adjustment, and I'm a little unsure about how to get it right, I have the Haynes –and some videos, but I suppose there is nothing like just tryin ...

Doing a rebuild on my '79 924 2.0L. The head is at the machine shop right now and the machinist says everything looks mostly fine, but he wants to do a standard valve lapping.

My worry is the weird ...
