Oh ya now that you ditched the back seat you got a place for the dry sump tank. We can build a space with Boeing cf surplus, vent to the underside (that oil tank is hot)...

Good idea... do you think that is necessary? I was planning on putting the bottom of my back seats back in, to make it look better

Dry sump is really cool but defiantly not necessary. But if I had to buy a new Porsche pump at 600(oh my ackin arse) bucks i would think about it. The new Z06 and GT40 are dry sump.

that would be pretty nice and sweet to brag about.... i just rebuilt my old oil pump... cleaned up real nice. It should work good :0

I got all the fittings for the oil housing today. They look sweet and work great! I will post the part numbers and prices once i return home. The total for three parts was $31 or so.

I got them from American Flex Ballard, Wa
- guy named Eric, smart guy, very helpful and knows a little about porsches +++
- subsidiary of American Hose and Fittings based in Kent

Which Cooler for my 944 n/a? Cant be too big, cant be too small. i am thinking 11x5 since its an N/A... what do you think?

11x5, 11x8, or 11x11?

Oil system build up - PARTS
 

I have purchased all my parts for the oil system. It was a punch in the stomach. BUT! 944 online wants to sell you something for $350 with rubber lines and a smaller cooler. This is stainless lines and nice adapters, PLUS the fun of building it yourself. +++++++! $260. So its a saving of $90, worth it???? its up to you to decide. For me its worth it to build it yourself... i probably would have done it even if it was more expensive. Here is the parts list -

What you see below is:

B&M Super Cooler 11x8x1.5 pt# 70266 $58.50
Stainless Goodrdige line 6ft $86.96

Red/Blue Aluminium Goodridge Adapters:
- 1x 12AN 45 degree Hose end $26.95 ea
- 1x 12AN straight single nipple $14.23 ea
- 2x 12AN 90 degree swivel hose $27.31 ea
- 2x 1/2 NPT to 12AN $ 9.66 ea

Adapters for Oil Filter/Cooler Module:

2x 12JIC PT# 12M22F80MXS $10.83 ea

p.s. I hate 944 10.2 CR pistons and all pistons in general, espically tolerance groups. More importantly the guys that worry about .0005 of an inch.

You take the good...
You take the bad....
and there you have...........

my closing statement.

Ya Baby! Geter Done! Damnit now I gotta have one 2!

check pm

i got it for $180... not bad, $227 on the msds site. Maybe you can find a like deal.

Looks as though cchyper is giving use the finger on the picture were he is installing the crank bearings. Whats up with that cchyper?

I noticed that also. I wonder who he is flipping off and why? Maybe he was just having a bad day.

Well thats not my finger, but i can tell you that it is a pretty funny picture... i dont know why it took so long for some one to find waldo.... hehe

you know russ i think they think your mits are my mits. Too bad i dont have sausages like that.

Eninge complete ready to meet body
 

Well the engine is complete, a few minor set backs really had the project slowing down, but now we are very close.

We have a few more sensors and hoses in the mail, but the motor is about ready for install. I am getting the itch (i hope these red bumps go away)

Anyways here are the pics.

i got to get rid of that light bar.

MORE PICTURES & DETAILS HERE:
REBUILD BLOG :rolleyes:

Why would you want to get rid of super rad cool light bar that says "PORSCHE" on it. Isn't it every porsche owner's goal to have as many porsche badges as possible on their automobile? I'll trade you my old waterpump for your lightbar. ;)

No its not every Porsche owners dream. Personally I cant stand the way those light bars look. Some people like them and I can respect that, but to me it ruins the look of the back of the car.

You are correct. I am removing it... i just keep on forgetting with all this engine work. Anyone want a light bar?

Very Nice, Im going to try and attempt myself what you have just completed doing. Rebuild the engine, You're guna have to video the first time you attempt to start'r up

prepare $3000+ i went in thinking i was gonna spend $1200 ended up spending a lot more.... way too much.

I may have missed it, but I'm hoping your going to do something useful with this project, like but it on the track and not just turn it into a street rod.
