Good for you. I'm doing exactly the same on my 996 engine. Your scores look just like mine!

Sir I have just discovered your channel and have run thru the stages of your rebuild.i find it of great interest as in 2018 I purchased a 2008 model manual 997 2CS with 51,00 miles. It had the bigger but unserviceable IMS.Within the first year of motoring putting on 1500 miles aprox. I read everything I could find in the forums etc to try and quantify the chances of IMS failure and possible bore scoring.My engine showed no sign of either.However sadly every time I took the car out for a fun drive I knew I was living on borrowed time.It was a great car to drive however I never enjoyed one minute of the 3000 odd miles I put on the car prior to selling it in Feb 2020.What with my yellow Lab dying in January and Covi 19 hitting, I knew 2020 was not a good year to own 997 gen1. I wish you all the best as I am sure you will enjoy the fruits of your labour for years to come.

I'm sorry to hear. I drive it as much as possible, but not during the winter here, that's a personal preference. Even now with the rebuild I still have moments of uh, oh what's that noise thinking I did something wrong. So far so good 👍

Could you have ordered the ring gapping done by LN Engineering or is that something you have to do yourself?

The service history was impeccable. The previous owner easily spent $25k in maintenance over the last 7 years. The inside showed very little wear on any parts.

@@997Dad in that case i’d better buy one which has already had an engine rebuild. Really enjoy watching your videos, can’t wait to hear your car running after the rebuild!

No idea. I'm going to take it to the dyno. Hopefully it'll be an interesting video 😊
