So, I had been thinking about getting a pickup-truck to haul around all those greasy, nasty car parts-- but now that I know the 996's trunk can handle it, why bother? That is a block for my 951 which I got a steal on-- went and picked it up an hour and a half away today. Everything is great, I am very excited-- although I did drop it on my bumper: . . .but that's no big deal-- I don't care, just want to get everything to get the 951 together. Plus I have an mk1 gt3 bumper, side skirts, and rear bumper winglets waiting to be painted. Should be on the car in about 2 weeks. I will post pictures of that when it is done- but here is a 'before' picture for reference:

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

it was almost hard to here you say you dont care that you dropped it on your bumper.
That's a good one Ted. Not the bumper drop, but the pic of a watercooler in a watercooler.
Nice to see Porsche with the engine on the right place. Btw I am very concerned at the idea of dropping the 951 engine in top of 996 bumper did the engine get damaged?
Did the engine get damaged....
The marks look like it slid off the bumper...did you end up damaging any pavement? I'm so very concerned about the pavement .
damged pavement is the worst thing ever
Ted, I see that you are halfway through the project of turbo charging an N/A car.. You know what people say about such projects, don't you?
Hah, stuck my951 engine in the hatch of my 944... dinged my paint too but your car is 30+K and mine is 3K
996 paint on a 951 motor = 30 fewer HP.

Damn, that motor is contaminated with 996 paint, that engine is worthless now. J
Not worthless, but it will probably develop an RMS problem, but they all do so who cares.
At least the 996 has the engine in the right location now........although transverse mounted wouldn't be my first choice.
I get the feeling that we are not making a good impression on this forum
Damn, that's kind of like saying... "My wife caught me sleeping with another woman, so she cut off my left nut. But that's OK, 'cuz I still have another one!"
ahh- thatll buff right out. Just get alittle aluminum polish.
