Hi.
Keith, just a FYI, the head gasket was leaking at 120K miles.
I had it on a lift and niticed a tiny leak under the intake area
of #3 cylinder. I modifyed the car knowing the head would go.
I drove the car hard for 15,000 more miles. Send me your email
and ill send some photos of me leading 2 911s at the track.
It's a 87 9000T I should have the new 2.3 head and intake finished
this week on my 2.0L block.Im also installing a new radiator because 14 years is pushing it. I found a great deal new Danish radiator for 150$
Ill keep you informed on longevity
and how she runs. I dont want to much boost or have the car in the shop
so im staying under 250HP. S/D has always been good to me.
Ive always been a Mc Guiver type so I enjoy playing and modifying.
But learned long ago in my Moto X days if the engineers build it, it will last if you tweak and push limits you may learn the hard way.
See ya Dave
