I sent an e-mail asking for quote on replating of liners:

Looks like they might be a great resource......I didn't know that Porsche used liners like ours? I guess it makes sense as it seems all the high end euro builders have similar engineering thoughts.

Good luck on this aspect of the job!

Anyone used it?

that's what i use as well, Joe Gibbs Driven-BR oil, in the engines i build. have a 45 gallon drum ready at all times. i think i mentioned on here before that i was invited to a seminar in September put on by Joe Gibbs Driven oil & hosted by Lake Speed Jr. it was a really good deal. would highly recommend it if anyone has the opportunity to go

Thanks for that other link about the coating process and engine/cylinder reconditioning....

I'm starting to learn alot from these threads about your motor autopsy/re-build.....or at least I think I'm beginning to learn that I didn't know how far this science has come since the late 60's/ early 70's...this is a steep curve when you stopped paying attention in the late 70's!

thanks guys!
