My 911:
This is my highly modified 964. It has a TPC supercharger, Big Red Brembo brakes, very stiff Bilsteins, an RSA interior.
Here is the engine with the TPC supercharger installed
Here is the Safety Devices bolt in cage.
So I did a complete Rebuild on the engine of this car. Some pictures of the rebuild follow and then some details of what I did. Rebuild went perfectly!
So here is the engine being dropped from below the car.
Here is the case being cracked
Here is the crank before I sent it along with the heads to Walt at Competition Engineering.

I had him put in a set of ARP rod bolts since he was inspecting the crank anyway.
Walt completely rebuilt the heads with new valves, guides, and racing springs.
I am in Boston but it was well worth the $50 shipping to send everything to Walt.
My dad and I did some male bonding and re-assembled the engine together.
I went to Bruce Anderson and Jerry Wood’s engine rebuilding course. It was great!!
We relied heavily on Wayne’s book:
How to Rebuild and
Modify your Porsche 911 Engine + Bonus CD-ROM
And you can’t do a rebuild without this
book or a factory spec manual:
Porsche
Carrera 964 1989-1994 Technical Data-Without Guesswork, by Bentley Publishing
I also think you have to buy the manuals or else buy a copy of the manuals on CD which are available for $50 on line.
Do not start without the right hardware. In the Northeast there is no place like

So here I am at Lime Rock in the new race car! Actually shortly after this was taken I blew the engine and so I am temporarily sidelined. The new engine is coming though. Check out these Miata links:
