2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th on Mayo. Great shop. I think Ed Mayo is on PCA's technical board on the earlier car too.

More on Ed, he is PCA's tech expert for early 911s and 914s. He and Al Zim were in the Porsche business together but parted with Zim going after parts sales and service for multiple types of cars; Ed works ONLY Porsche cars and most likely will put his hands on your car while at Zim's you will get whoever is available. Don't get me wrong here, Zim's is good but Mayo is GREAT!
