Does this mean someone else will be able to use the engine stand? Wow - that really looks great. I hope everything is back together before the 28th. Better hurry up and get some miles on that thing!

Jay,

I used black brake caliper paint on the valve covers. After the paint dried I went over the raised areas (lettering top, ribs lower) with a block sander.

Damn, that engine looks good. My kitchen floor isn't that clean.

Yeah, it sure does..
and from following Charlie's act I Know it's a class act

but those pics don't show the finished product properly.. I'm not sure, but I need more depth to those pics.. like it almost looks
un-worthy.. maybe the storm has me spinning/whatever......Ron

Here's a picture of my motor. Be honest how does it compare :)

Would the used engine stand be for sale??

thanks great looking engine

keith

Shore is purty ... problem is it's a Porsche so it'll be leaky and oily in no time :P :)

Very clean build ... would love to hear if it's as fast as it looks.

Keith,

The stand is not for sale. It a community NoVA stand/yolk that we all pitched in to buy. I've been hogging it for a while. I think the waiting list is HUGE.

Will that stand work on a 993 engine? I think my clutch is slipping;).

Nice job Charlie. Did you get the VHT polyurathane in a spray? At the autoparts store? I'm just about to do my intakes.

Eric

Charlie - I just sent you an e-mail about getting my hands on the stand next :)

Isn't p0rn like that illegal???:cool:

Doug.....The engine is off the stand and on the MC jack. The stand and yolk are yours for the taking.

Eric.....I ordered the VHT clear from Jegs.com

Great for comparison with the Por-15, no rust properties, clear I just shot on manifolds today.. I figure in 5k mi each to see if my stuff gets brownish.. I'll do the ride to eyeball in real time.. but then I'm gonna need coffee.............Ron

You BI@CH, I bet the guys at the factory couldn't even come close to that. And thoes picture are not good for the pocket book, and should be banned and I am going to report you to the moderator.:eek: :eek: :eek: :mad: Makes you not even want to install it and start it up.

Yeoh! Me Gusto! Very nice work Charlie. I must have the same decease you have, because my "drop the engine to fix an leaky t-stat" turned into a powder coat this and that and argh...too much purdy stuff. Kevin knows, and his car is more of a garage queen than mine!

Please post HP numbers when you get them. I am very interested in getting more HP out of my CIS 3.0.

I powder coated my engine tin too, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Kep those things nice and clean. No more rusty tin!

Just goin over old posts. This is very close to a config I am in the process of...any dyno charts?

yes, from thread:
