Porsche Crest Engine Install Party - This Saturday (10/22) in SoCal

Hey SoCal Pelicans!

I dropped my engine + trans back in April to replace a worn out shift fork. Now, it's time to put it back in. I would also like to do a valve adjustment (first time I've done it) before putting it back in. Would love to get one, two, or more guys together to help out if anyone is interested. I will provide lunch + beer afterwards.

I'm located in Claremont (about 30 miles east of LA). Please PM or reply if you would be interested in joining and I will PM you my address. Would like to get started Saturday morning around 8 - 9 AM. Putting it all back together is the goal, but no sweat if we can't finish in a day.

Thanks a lot - your help would be very much appreciated!

Start at 7 and I will swing by and show you how to adjust the valves but have to leave by 9:30 to go to work

Man, I wish I was in your area. I would love to show up just to watch/learn how to properly adjust valves. Have fun and best wishes.

Wow, didn't know there are so many of us in SoCal.

Down for a monthly GTG, but I will be Porsche-less soon. Hope that doesn't exclude me.
