I had them gone through and resurfaced buy a machine shop that is used by 2 Porsche builders in the Denver area.

Suggestion
I hope the inside was cleaned as well as the outside (ie: ultrasound cleaning tank) - it looks like that bearing was in stage 3 failure (right before grenading).

Suggestion · Original poster
After tearing it apart I could have just left it alone and replaced the bearing but this has been fun and fingers crossed, no more leaks.

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.

Thanks! It�s slightly better than when I took it out, she was a leaker.
I did Nickies 3.4 to 3.8, JE pistons, Carrillo forged connecting rods, ARP hardware, Tuners DOF IMS.
pending IMS doom. Caught it just in time. After tearing it apart I could have just left it alone and replaced the bearing but this has been fun and fingers crossed, no more leaks.
Looks great and love a clean engine going back in. Shows attention to detail. If you're interested in getting those muffler boxes looking much better I know a product that will do wonders. It just requires some steel wool, gloves and elbow grease but will really clean them up.
I hope the inside was cleaned as well as the outside (ie: ultrasound cleaning tank) - it looks like that bearing was in stage 3 failure (right before grenading). This mean there is/was plenty fine metallic (steel) particles distributed throughout the interior of the engine. If not properly cleaned this will cause problems down the road.
None what so ever
I've mentioned the product before in other threads and talked about it in my own build thread along with the process and before and after photos. These threads just get buried and lost after a while so instead of searching for it it's easier to just peek into your PMs. But if you're interested the stuff is called Ospho.
