GT2 engine refresh and some mild uprgades @GMG

Well it was only a matter of time before our GT2 was due to have a little engine refresh.

I was finding more and more oil in the intake track of IC's and we traced it back to the valve guides.. Odd for a low mileage car but not out of the ordinary as we have had this issue on a few other cars.

I generally don't post engine build/ service pictures but we do this work @ GMG and many of you don't know that we offer this service.


I am going to do a few upgrades to the heads before they get re-installed and will document what we do so you guys can check it out.


If anyone is need of engine rebuilding or internal service work we have some of the best engine builders on staff with over 30 years of Porsche experience and specialized engineering experience in F1 racing engines as well as the road going GT2/GT3 and Turbo applications..

Here are some starter pictures:

Is that he 996 GT2 WC "White Mischief". That is one of my favorite cars - ever. That article is what sold me on 996 Turbo (even though I didn't get a GT2).
