I'm guessing you aren't located on the 3rd floor?

I’ve rebuilt cylinder heads in my living room but never a complete engine. Sorry, no pics.

I replaced an exhaust valve on my 1600 Super in the dorm room at Lycoming College in 1970 for my 58 Cab.Fred

Back in the early 80's when living and working in upstate NY I brought my BMW R100RS motorcycle into the living room for the winter, and rebuilt the engine in the kitchen. Seemed like a perfectly normal thing to do while the 911 occupied my 1 car garage and the old (t)rusty Saab sat out in the snow.

Engine rebuild and assembly.......
 
I did one when my wife went to Sydney, Australia a few years ago. It motivated me to get it done before her arrival back home. Right now, she is back again in Australia visiting her mother. Guess what? I got one in the basement partially assembled at the moment. And I got 3 weeks left before she comes home.

I recall my dad removing head studs from a 911 case in the den many years ago. I haven't done an engine in the house, but I did swap out rim halves in the living room for 3 piece wheels for the racecar!

Closest I’ve come is building a wiring harness on the dining room table. The original one I was using as a template was unbelievably filthy in spite of my attempts to clean it before taking it inside.

the floor number has no importance as my garage was in -2.

Prior to decided to rebuilt it in my appartment, I made some mesurement to make sur that the engine could go throught the various doors !!!

Excellent :)

I will admit as a teen to building my motorcycle engine in the den of my parents house while they were on vacation. 911 engine is too heavy to do in-house, but fortunately I now have my own garage.
