The 3.2 rebuild is almost complete......

This is what I did today.......I rebuilt the 3.2 engine (spun rod bearing) and today installed it back into the 911......I just need to wire it up and refurb/repair the oil cooler/lines etc and it will be ready to roll!!.....he said confidently.





regards,
al

Thanks...the answer is yes. I found a nice used one and that is installed and the original crank was sent to Marine Crankshaft for repair. Once it is done, it will be up for sale...so , if you know anyone looking for a reworked 3.2 crank...send them my way.

regards,
al

On a 3.2 I'm working on, the lower rear airbox clip has been broken.. I've seen a few like this as it's the most difficult clip to reach ....

Owner is thinking of a cone filter setup.. where do we get the adapter place to mount a cone filter to the maf?
