I have only been on the phone with them. Typical junkyard dealers. Can't you find someone closer? You have to be patient.

I bought my 3.2 Carrera motor from them. They seem to be honest and I had no problems.

My father-in-law has purchased a 930 engine and several other "goodies" from then and has been happy with them. I think they will give you the typical junkyard BS, but once you cut through that, they seem pretty decent to deal with. YMMV

We buy a lot of core transmissions from them for rebuilding. They are pretty much always as advertised and are pretty quick to ship.

Is this the same crew as LAPD (porsche dismantlers)? If so, search on LAPD for one.
I can't say I'd recommend them, though they may be no worse than any other competitor. I posted a lengthy thread about my experience.

I've bought a couple of items from them. I'd recommend going there and getting eyes on before buying if possible. Don't be afraid to haggle.

honest people, but expensive.

I for one wouldn't call their operation a "typical junk yard" thats bull...they've got more high priced porsche mechanical as well as body bits sitting outside than most have inside!
In their inner sanctum they've got the real deal rare late model performance and factory bits
,it may take some haggling and wrangling but usually a decent deal can be had if you know what you're looking for..
I've gotten plenty of stuff from Todd, for one they may be the only one with it in any quantity.

Honest but expensive.. But i also think Porsche parts went up alot since most cars are being sold to out of staters..

I bought my 3.2 carrera engine from them and a bunch of parts and pieces. Shipped fast crated well and shipped to Ohio in a timely fasion. Hard to get Todd on the phone!! Keep calling and bugging him. He is very quick and talks fast so know exactly what you are going to say before you finally get him on the phone!! He is very busy it seems!!!
