Book Reviews of How to Rebuild and Modify Porsche 911 Engines 1965-1989
Book Review: Its a good book, full of colored pictures and instructions but...
Summary: 3 Stars
I haven't gone through full detail reading the book, but it'll make you feel more confident in rebuilding the engine. It'll also make you more weary about starting because it shows how much meticulous effort you must put in order to avoid future oil leaks.
What I don't like about this book is that it makes you need to buy his other book (101 projects for your porsche) if you do not already know how to remove the engine. Removing a porsche engine requires more work than something like a chevy small block because you must lift the car up and remove the engine from underneath. I don't see why the author just didn't include the few extra pages in this book as it is required to rebuild an engine.
