    Motor building tips

    I've got a motor I want to do some mild work to over the winter, anybody got
    ideas on what I should do first? Cam head work? where should I start and
    where should I look for the performance parts?

    In my experience, a lot of aftermarket engine parts just don't stand up
    as well as real Porsche engine parts. You may get more performance (for
    awile) but the engine will not last as long as the real thing.

    Then "blueprint" the stock engine. Try to make sure that everthing is
    balanced and as close to perfect as you or the machine shop can get it.
    That should give you a smoother running engine that will provide a little
    more horsepower and economy.
    This will require a lot of measuring, assembly and disassembly while
    checking specs.
    I don't trust a lot of machine shops here in Chicago. I don't feel that
    they go that extra mile to do the job perfect. :-(

    good luck!
