    Porsche 930 Starter Predicament

    Re: A Starter Predicament Hi Ron, I can't really say - I have no idea of how much plunge the half-shafts/CVs support. I would assume that a custom length would be required in an ideal world (but that's a world I don't live in!) Al

    Porsche 930 Starter Predicament

    Re: A Starter Predicament Hi Jeff, I have an inverted 930. Fran indicated the half shafts are designed to support the engine in the design (rearward) location. However, I don't have them in hand yet, so I can't answer your question. Regards, Al

    930 Release Bearing Retention?

    Hi Folks, Having never worked on a pull style pressure plate before, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how the clutch release bearing is supposed to be retained to the pressure plate on a 930. I have seen a few photos that show a snap ring and a set of washers that appear to be used to...

    Garage lift

    If you get a backyard buddy 4 poster (I am very happy with mine), get the rolling work platform option - definitely worth the money. This lets you lift two wheels (or what ever) at a time with just a small hydraulic "bottle" jack. I also found that a couple of under lift stands really come in...
