1986 Porsche 930 Turbo Engine Removal

[@757930]

I lived in a 500sq ft beach bungalow in 2001, owned a 1983 930 gray market 330hp, bought it cheap from a lawyer. Daily drove it 100,000+ miles, had a 1.2 bar wastegate spring, K27 turbo, Kokeln intercooler. It was well over 400hp, 4 speed transmission, best car i ever owned. Unbelievably slow off boost, when the rpm`s hit 3k, all hell broke loose, you need to be pointed straight. I beat lots of cars drag racing from a rolling start, but lost a bunch from a dig.

Can you please tell me how strong are those gas-filled struts that hold the trunk open.

Probably an old school CHT probe under the spark plug

[@Breitwerks]

I believe you are absolutely correct!

[@jesse818]

Would you mind sharing type of engine stand you are using to fit the yoke tool? 15:14 Can’t find a good stand with opened legs. Does it fold?

[@Breitwerks]

Non folding. I haven’t seen them available for a long time but I know you used to be able to get them at good old HF. I’ve gotten so used to them that I gave away a few of the ones with the cross beams a few years back.
