Post I give up - need quality technician in Rhode Island

I'm ashamed to say it, but I give up. I need professional help for my '89 C4. I have completed extensive top end rebuild, but continue to have performance problems and feel the hammer is the only way out. Any quality techs in Providence, RI or nearby?? Thanks.

I think you're the only person living in RI. And I don't mean the only Porsche owner either.

Cool

No - there are 2 people in Rhode Island!!
In Johnston, Natale Brothers - call and ask for Dennis Natale. He did a sychro and clutch job on my 1984 Targa. Great work and he completes the job on schedule.

Tech in RI

I had clutch work done by Tom at Metric Motors in Rehoboth, Mass.. He is located on Rt. 6 (Fall River Avenue) just east of the Seekonk Speedway. What I liked about him is that he didnt diagnose or oreder any parts until he took the car apart and checked it out. I had heard all kinds of theories why it wouldnt shift right and all it turned out to be was a loose clutch fork pivot bolt. Myself and a couple other guys around her recommend him to anybody.

911Tfan, this thread is 9 years old.....

I would think Steve probably found a hammer since then
