oh I see. Proto would be great, but $$$ for shipping and of course the work. Autowerks in Toronto have some experience with 996/996tt builds in case you are interested. They do the work on my car and I will probably use them if I decide to build the engine.

I've got to figure out how to deal with all that power (and balance my budget at the same time). Of course, the cheapest option would be just to turn down the boost.

Here's what I mean--rotated sleeve, too much power?!... lol.

Turn down the boost? nah!!!

I started the car today for its monthly move. I can't wait for spring! Realistically I'll have it on the road in a few weeks unless we finally get some snow.

Everything is apart and I'm just slow to decide what to do. Stay with stock piston/sleeves, go to 3.8, o-ring heads, etc..? .

LOL. It's fun to fantasize but I haven't gotten sucked into the vortex quite yet. It could still come out as a "basic" build due to the cost.
