Thanks to all that made suggestions. To put any concerns to rest, I have ordered 101 projects, swepco for the tranny and a couple mahle filters (among many other good things I found on the website) to get me started. Although I appreciate all the advice, I tend to agree that its worth a couple extra bucks for a product that was designed for the specific application.
I'm sure I will have many more questions to come.
I thank everyone very much. It's truly remarkable that one can pose a question and in a matter of minutes have such excellent expertise available.
For any that are interested in the car. I bought it last summer from a guy who said it was a european car, but has turned out to be from japan, which I believe means the low compression engine although I'm rather fond of the seats. The serial numbers clearly indicate north american cars, but when the serial number came up ROW I assumed he was right. After many years of reading porsche magazines and thought I new all I needed to make a purchase, hmmm how does that saying go, unconsciously incompetent. I was originally looking for a 944 s2 or turbo as I figured that was the best value in my budget, but when I came across the opportunity to purchase a 911 in my budget I leap right in, eyes wide shut. Not a bad car but certainly will need some freshening to get it where it should be and after it was repainted, who ever put it back together seemed to do a pretty quick job of it, headlights not aimed correctly, the odd bolt missing.... 90,000km's on the odometer although I am somewhat curious if that's really the case. Doesn't seem to burn oil compared to what I hear these cars can and runs smoothly, starts well. I think it's biggest issue is lack of use. Sure is an enjoyable car to drive though. I will post I picture when I figure out how to do such a thing.
Take care all, talk to you soon and thanks again.
