top end rebuild, specialist tools
 

Planning a top end rebuild soon.

I have most of the tools/equipment needed for a engine rebuild but what special tools/equipment will i require on my 3.2 and where is the best place to source parts and tools from. Got a lot of reading up to do yet. Any advise, hints/tips, web links appreciated:confused:

Off the top of my head, after mine a year ago:

Engine stand adapter to fit Porsche flat 6

Cam holding tool for camshaft removal/ cam timing adjustment

Z block and dial indicator for cam timing

Propane torch to heat all the rusted studs, nuts from the exhaust manifolds and cylinder head barrel nuts

A sacrificial set of easy-outs for the barrel nuts you will strip trying to remove

Copy of How to Rebuild and Modify Porsche 911 Engines- available here at Pelican

This is assuming you are farming out the machine work...

Good Luck!
