Just bought a 1984 Carrera; love the car( my first porsche). Took the car in for service. (New rear calapers, new pads, new clutch cable, fixed oil leak over right valve cover but when the technician ( Rennwerke, Elmsford ,NY) was doing the valve ajustment I got the phone call. ) One broken head stud.

The car runs great and has 116,00 miles on it but had an engine rebuild at 75,000 miles: Top end, new valves and guides, gasket set, piston/liners, new clutch, cam oil line. (Rebuild done by Auto Sprint in Brewster, NY.). Car still needs new shocks, tires and came with 15" phone dials. I would like to up grade to 16" fuchs.

Tech at Rennwerke said drive the car for the summer and bring it back this winter and he will replace all 12 head studs on bottom for $3,500.

Questions:
- Will I damage the car driving it?
- Can it be properly fixed?
-Is $3,500 a far price?
- Why did this car need a rebuild and why did a stud break?
- Does any one known the best Porsche repair shop in NY?

Thank you for any help or advice any one has , Mike Cola
