The most 'mystical' part of the engine rebuild for many inc me.
I've done it 5 times over the years and still seems an element of luck to getting it right for me.
Great video, one to find on YouTube when the next need arrises (this Xmas I think for me).

Having the right tools helps, but it is actually not too difficult now I have wrapped my head around it.

This week I get stuck in and actually make some good progress on the 911. Painting engine parts, fitting the chain tensioners and then replacing the dreaded fuel lines

I have been dying to put my shiny new ITB's onto the engine for a while and they look so good.
