great mechanical skills, and on top of that doing it with style (jacket). Assuming your 2001 engine is pretty much like mine 996/1999? I have 68k miles on it. Amazing to see the complete tear down and how the engine looks since, I cannot see much of the engine by looking at it. I am now even more terrified by looking at that spreadsheet LOL!!! IMS and the bore scoring now? And I was only worrying about the IMS, to now also worry about scoring? Anyways, looking forward to continuing learning. Great content! Julio
Hey Julio! Our cars are very similar internally, aside from a few minor differences. Like I said in the video, the spreadsheet is not meant to freak you out! It's just a visual to help give context on everything I'm doing to my car. Seeing all of the issues compiled in a single list is freaky, but they're all few and far between. No stress! Thanks again for watching along, as always!
Loving this series of mechanical rebuild. I've said it before, I'm about to pull the engine out of my '99 carrera 2 and do some work on it
Thanks Craig!! I’m glad you enjoy it. Good luck with the engine out!
Quite informative, entertaining and FunAhead!
Thanks Tim!! Much appreciated
Strong Mr. Rogers vibe in the opening. Very cool. Great project…would love to have this done with my engine!
Haha yess! That's exactly what I was going for with the Mr. Rogers thing. I appreciate you watching along as always!
Information about your costs, including how much you are saving by doing some work yourself, would be welcome!
For sure! I have a multifaceted cost analysis video coming down the pipe. Stay tuned for that.

Isn’t there some sort or chromoly steel hex drive upgrade for the oil pump?
Yes, there is. LN Engineering makes it. Kind of overkill, in my opinion.
Looking forward to hearing about the Nikasil decision
Coming soon! They’re going to look 👌👌👌😬

Yes, this engine has a ton of fasteners.
I got seasick.
