SOLD SOLD SOLD THANKS GUYS!!!!

Hey guys, bad news My car wont be ready for the Rolex. Hence Im selling my PCA pass. This gets you in the stadium and in the PCA corral. They sell out within 1 hour. Im grandfathered in so I get first dibs. $250 takes it. Since were so close to the event, I wil overnight the sticker to you for $20.

Trust me that's a deal. Try parking outside the stadium and take a shuttle (20 minute line) inside the stadium and then not have your car or beer/food/cooler inside (spend $100 on beers between 2 people). Then when your buzzed, shuttle back out to your 911 that's been sitting god knows where all day and night.

Not to mention if you haven't been there, the Porsche corral is all Porsche cars/trucks butted up against the inside road course of Daytona. Its a blast! The PCA tent is inside the corral with free goodies and a big screen TV for sitting and watching.



Here's last years various spots. Security is present if you drink to much and decide to leave the car in the corral which I did!


Will take paypal but add 3% or $75 or shoot me a check for $250!

Engine lid shocks came in today. I removed the originals for weight savings back when I gutted the car, but figured I may want to show the engine bay off a bit now that she will be all pretty and clean.

I went with all OEM stuff. I think one shock should do it since I have a lightweight FG duck tail but I got 2 shocks just in case.







Needed a new timing chain oil fed tensioner. Mike said mine was missing a small check ball. Found this new old stock OEM Porsche part on eBay for a good deal. Got lucky, they aint cheep!

Trakrat, after removing all the case galley plugs and squirters I degrease and dry it before glass beading it with a fine media, It's time consuming but the results are very nice, I do the cam housings the same way as well, after years of trying to get those pieces clean it simply is faster to do it this way for me.

Mike setting up the cam sprockets and checking the distributor backlash. I must say the JB Racing twin plug disty is a beautiful piece.

MSD 6AL and coils are in and ready for that motor! Carbon fuse panel should look nice with the carbon engine shroud. Also only needed 1 engine lid shock to keep the engine lid open.

Big shout out and thanks to the guys at Speed Syndicate in St Petersburg. These guys attention to detail is impeccable!

More goodness from Mike Bruns. Everything coming together very nicely!

Cam tower assembly, cams and rockers are on. Also welding the oil drain plug to the sump cover.

Carbon shroud is almost done. Manifolds are for 50MM PMOs. Will also be dyno testing 46MM PMOs. That combined with 3 different mufflers will let us know the most powerful combination. The mufflers we are using will be a GT3 cup, M&K 2 in 2 out that was on the car, and a William Knight concoction consisting of a dynomax muffler.

Getting there! Red wires will be used at the dyno, but were running black on the car.

That engine looks so nice it's almost a shame to put in a car.


Nice work Mr Bruns. Good memories when you help me build mine.
