1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod
I thought hopefully this time it would be different. I would be able to get it in the air with the lift so could hopefully get bigger muscles onto it (previously the car was on axles stands and I would have been lying on my back. The other thing that was worrying me was that I needed to have the eng...

Then it was time to fit the clutch. I searched and searched but couldn’t find the clutch centring tool I made about 15 years ago, so I made another one with an old socket bar and some tape https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240420/dab8f224a935c931a53a021f6b3ce8d0.jpg The tool worked great https://up...

Never mind Graham. You might feel better about it when you’ve left it alone for a while.

Next was the heater hoses Now I’ve never been entirely happy with the diameter of the hoses I’ve been using. In order to fit onto the 993 heat exchangers I had to order 76mm ID hose. The problem is that they are too big to fit onto the pipes coming off the fan https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202404...

Re: 1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod
OK So I posted an update last week-end but it was lost in the forum update, so I’ll try and remember what I posted. In answer to the suggestion that there had been excessive wear on the camshaft or rocker due to oil starvation I took the cover off and had another look https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.co...

Thanks for the offer Nick but if I changed from the 993 heat exchangers then I’d probably go to to SSI’s myself

Re: 1987 3.2 Carrera Backdate project - Sladeys hotrod
I forgot to write about the stud that caused this whole thing! This went in OK. The stud was supplied with loctite already applied to it which was useful. I screwed it in by hand but it just kept on screwing in so to keep it at the right depth I popped a bolt in from the other side https://uploads.t...
