Pulled the engine from the parts car I picked up, took about 4 hours, not nearly as bad a job as I had expected...

Hay that looks just like my engine stand.
I done that not 2 days ago but I pulled the 4 bolts from the torque tube instead. It all started to replace the clutch but ended up pulling apart the whole thing wile cleaning it. Good thing I did, I found the #2 ring on the #4 cylinder busted. Looks like the PO done a rebuild recently. I think he may have even put new pistons in. Must not have checked the ring gap before assembly. The cylinder walls were ok so I redone the crosshatching replaced the rings and reassembled. Hope to have it on the road by the end of the week.
Good luck with your project. Jim

Wasn't that fun!!
Check that right side motor mount before you reinstall. There is a good chance that the spring inside of it is broken.

In your 1st picture, is that a laser?
I wish my car had one.  |

Yeah, it was kind of fun. We were thinking of pulling the 4 bolts at the torque tube as well, but decided to go the conventional route. This engine will be on a stand for a bit while I tinker and learn, break it down and rebuild and then install it in my 924. The body of the car it came out of has a few more items I will strip off before it goes to the scrap heap.

I guess it does. Never looked at it that way but you're right.

Yeah, fix up the engine is the plan, the body itself is going to a scrap yard unless smoeone in Edmonton wants to take it for free. I'd like to rebuild the engine slowly over the next few years, a bit of a learning exercise.
