Who is doing the rebuild? There are many things on these motors that cannot be rebuilt. I prefer to think of these overhauls more as a "refreshening" than an actual rebuild.
I started up our project 996 with the bad motor today, boy did it sound bad. I checked for camshaft deviation with the PST2 and didn't find any. That means that the timing chains are probably okay, which is what I thought was originally wrong with it. But now, it looks like we might be tearing it apart and rebuilding it.
