Congratulations
That's nice Alan.....VERY NICE

Looks like a superb job.
I imagine it goes like a rocket, and love the sleeper look.

good to see you've finally got a Porsche back on the road again Alan.
Looks great, I can feel a visit to Bournemouth coming on!
How about some proper photos of it outside the garage?!

Alan, looks very nice but Alaska!
Did you try that old one..."I like to see the car, can you meet me half way?"

Thanks all,
I am having such fun.
I took my mother out for a quick spin in the car earlier today. It was hilarious, she was grabbing at the dash board and we had not even hit 4k rpm. It really shifts....
I will try and get some outside/day light pics tomorrow
If anyone is passing you know you are also welcome to visit Sunny Bournemouth.
Thanks again
Alan

here are the new 98mm pistons, hmm

Hi Saxon,
I Love em, I spoke at length with Richard from PMO and Richard from Clewett when putting the specs together for this motor and I think it was the right choice.
