When I bought my 911SC in 2001, I just did my own rudimentary PPI and completely missed all of the issues like head studs that led to a full rebuild a year later or so. That was about the time I discovered this place and the general practice of using internet BBSs as great sources of info on specific cars/models. I'd owned a 911 before but never had any issues with it. Live and learn.
