goto your battery, there should only be one drain tube, the tubes drop down to where the rust show on that pix. usually the tube is longer and does'nt touch paint, not sure why my was that way.

Would be interesting to see this 6GT3 compare to the 4.0L from Musante/EPL..

We need a US version of the tuner GP!

Ok so in-between the other 3.9 builds we've slowly been making progress on our 996GT3 build.

With the heads off we're down to the pistons now:


The heads...


No thanks to Mooty and JWGT2 she's had a fair amount of usage


Pistons out and removed we're down to the rods (same Titanium ones as in the 997GT3).
