Well, my last 911 was a 76 911S with a 2.7l motor and thermal reactors.
I owned it 19 yrs, had a total engine rebuilt, remove reactors, replace with ssi exhaust, chain tensioners, new head studs and oil cooler in front right wheel well.
Ran awesome, quick and fun for 135k miles, then the ol oil leaking started again, thru the head studs. That is the ding of the motor, the magnesium block with the whatever metal are the head studs heat and cool at different rates so eventually will leak. The aluminum block of the SC's is bombproof
