I had rebuilt the engine on my 911sc and it was running really great. Had a cat bypass on the standard exhaust, which made it sound really nice too.

But somehow I wanted to convert to SSI style heat exchangers because of all the power increase and how they were supposed to free the motor into a revving monster.

So I got me a pair of old heat exchangers on evil bay and did the conversion, which I completed with a 2 in 1 out muffler. To be honest, it felt like the engine lost some of its torque, just to move the max power to higher rpms.

But the worst part is, one of the oil lines I had to replace sprung a leak which destroyed the bearings in my freshly rebuilt engine.

I wish I had left good enough alone, but I had to rebuild it again. Thankfully, my first rebuild was just top end, so I had the opportunity to do bottom end that time, and the heads were still fine.
